Directions:
Thoroughly scrub potatoes with a brush. Cut the
larger potatoes into half so that the halves are
about 1-1/2 inches thick. Wash the green beans.
Snap off the ends and, if there is one, pull off the
string with one of the ends. Cut the beans into
1-1/2 inch lengths. Put the beans and potatoes in a
large pot and cover with water. Add 1 teaspoon of
salt. Cook about twenty minutes until the beans
and potatoes are barely tender. Pour the water off
the beans. Put 2 to 3 tablespoons of butter in the
beans. Salt and pepper to taste. Heat briefly
tossing beans and potatoes in butter, salt and
pepper. Turn off heat and put lid back on pot for
about 5 minutes.
My Notes:
for added flavor add a slice of ham right after the
salt
