It has been some time now since I shared one of my Lebanese family recipes! Green beans are cooked in olive oil, hence the title 'b'zeit' and stewed in a basic tomato sauce. As it's a stew you should leave it to simmer on low heat so all the flavours melt together, but be careful not to overdo it as you don't want mushy beans. Middle Eastern food doesn't tend to favour leaving. Loubyeh b' zeit or green beans in olive oil (although, technically, it's tomato sauce) is a Middle Eastern vegetarian one-pot dish.
