Green Beans with Eggs (Yesil Fasulye Kavurmasi)

1 lb green beans, frozen or fresh
2-3 eggs
3-4 butter/olive oil
1 tsp salt to taste
¼ tsp paprika

Clean green beans, wash and drain. Cut them into 1 inch or bigger pieces. Boil them in salty water for about 20 minutes, till they get soft. If you are using frozen green beans, then decrease the boiling time to 10-12 minutes. Drain and transfer them into a wide skillet. Cook them over medium heat with butter/olive oil.
I like them lightly browned, but you can adjust the cooking time according to your texture preference. When they are ready sprinkle paprika all over and then crack eggs into the skillet. Stir gently and cook until the eggs are cooked.
You can also enjoy it without eggs, by skipping the last step. They are both good to go at lunch, as a side dish or a light dinner.
ENJOY

Ben hafif kizarmis sevdigim icin kahverengiye donene dek kavuruyorum. Istediginiz kivama gore kavurabilirsiniz. Atesi kapatmadan once kirmizi toz biberi serpin. Sonra, yumurtalari tavaya kirin ve nazikce karistirin. Yumurtalar pisince atesten alin ve sicak servis yapin.
Yumurta kirmadan da toz biberi serpince atesten alip sade olarak da servis yapabilirsiniz.
Her iki sekilde de cok guzel bir sebze yemegi oluyor.
