Preparation

Step 1

In a saucepan, cook beans in salted boiling water for about 4 minutes. Drain and reserve water.

While the beans cook, sauté onions, garlic and basil in oil for 2 minutes. Stir in remaining ingredients and cook until sauce like, about 3 minutes. Add the beans and cover. Simmer about 15 minutes or until as tender as you like, adding more water as necessary to keep moist.
