This is part of an experiment to get Mike to like green beans. He did eat them, although I don’t think I have him converted.
- 1 pound green beans, trimmed and washed
- 1 medium onion, sliced into half moons
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 heaping tablespoon miso paste
- freshly cracked pepper
- Heat the oil over medium-high heat in a large frying pan. Add the onions and cook for a few minutes until onions start to brown.
- Add the green beans and a generous amount of pepper. Stir. Add the water, cover with a tightly fitting lid, and reduce the heat to medium low.
- Cook, stirring once or twice, for about 20-25 minutes.
- Once the green beans are done, stir the miso paste into the pan juices. Mix well. Adjust seasoning as needed and serve.
(Serves 4)
I used red miso but you can use darker or lighter to suit your taste.

Mmm!
Have you tried roasting green beans? That seems to do the trick for a lot of vegetables when serving them to skeptics
The green beans get all sweet and crackly.
I have not tried roasting green beans, but it sounds delicious. I do love roasting veggies. Spring has been slow coming here, so roasting sounds good. Thanks for the tip!
