I just made this wonderful dish. DEEE licious. My husband (pugliese) loved it, though he said, “quella ragazza li’ ti ha detto di mettere tutto quell’olio?”. Si, I replied. “Eh beh si, i Calabresi esaggerano sempre con olio”!!!

I thought it was PERFECT….we’ll be enjoying the leftovers tomorrow cold. YUM. Thanks for this!

Haha, measurements are always to be played with, but I find with this you need some liquid to cook throughout and more oil gives it more flavor than just adding so much water. I made this last night and we had the leftovers for lunch…and I told P this week I’m buying all the lady has in fagiolini at the market! Thanks for letting me know!

i made this recipe but substituted the pancetta with a vegan faux sausage.

it came out really good!

i’m going to make more of your recipes.

Enjoy Betty! What’s great about so many of the things we make is that many times you can substitute for whatever you have on hand. New dishes are always being invented that way around here

See, when people ask me what my definition of luxury is, I can only say — it’s not gold plated faucets. It’s having 1) time (the ultimate luxury) and it’s 2) having access to food like this. It sounds so simple, go to the grocery store and buy the ingredients. But when the ingredients are all hyper-local (meaning from some neighbor’s garden or the very local farmer’s market), what could be truly more luxurious (then feeding your body nutrients that are only a few hours old)?

Oh enough, let’s eat already!

xxoo

It’s so true. Nothing can replace or cover up old, dried out, tasteless ingredients…getting fresh produce and even meats really make all the difference. Luxuriant indeed!

It looks so fresh and appetizing. I am going to try it this weekend. Summer time is always a great time for fresh vegies and excellent healthy meals.

Enjoy!

I just made this for dinner and it was great – a definite new staple recipe in my repertoire!

So glad to hear it Elle! It really is quite a simple recipe at its bare bones…and so tasty
