Bowtie Pasta with Mushroom Sauce
Easy
SERVES 6 TO 8
Green beans in tomato sauce is a classic recipe from home. Every time I make it, I see my Neapolitan grandmother in her flowered apron with a bushel of beans spread out on newspaper on the kitchen table. One by one she trimmed them and piled them into a large colander. She used green beans in so many ways, beans with mint, olive oil and vinegar for a salad was a favorite, as was this dish of beans mixed with homemade tomato sauce.
This recipe was featured on Season 15 - Episode 1525.

Love this dish. My Italian grandma and mom made this all the time! They called it (sp?) fudgalites. Have you heard that word before?

Although we never called it more than string beans and gravy, my mom made this often. She would add chunks of pepperoni to it because my dad love pepperoni. It gave a nice spicy taste to it.

My mom made sting beans and potato in tomato sauce. We had it all the time, yet I can never find a recipe online.

Do you mean faggiolini? FAH JOE LEE NEE that is the name of the beans in italian. An old friend of mine was telling me his mom made manastan beans. I was wondering what that was when I figured it was minestra and beans lol! My nonna made faggiolini nel sugo all the time. Hers was a bit different than this recipe as she made the sauce then added the strignbeans to cook in the sauce and also she added a couple of cups of water to make it more of a stew. Olive oil, garlic, tomatoes and basil with a pinch of salt and pepper!

this is the recipe my nonna used, never sugar in tomato sauce by the way.
