Ingredients

1/3 cup olive oil

2 garlic cloves, sliced

1/2 bunch thyme, leaves removed

8 minute steaks

1 onion, chopped

1 bunch snake beans, cut into 3 cm pieces

1/2 cup water

1/4 cup tomato paste

1 tablespoon sugar

Method

1.In a shallow dish, combine 1/4 cup oil, garlic and thyme. Add steaks, turning to coat. Cover and marinate, chilled, for 20 minutes.

2.Heat remaining oil in a frying pan on medium. Saute onion for 2-3 minutes, until tender. Stir in beans, water, tomato paste and sugar. Simmer, covered, for 10 minutes, until beans are tender. Season to taste.

3.Meanwhile, heat a char-grill on high. Cook steak for 1-2 minutes each side, until done to taste. Serve with beans and lemon wedges.

If liked, drain a little of the oil from the marinade and fry the garlic and thyme in a small frying pan, until garlic is crisp. Sprinkle over steaks to serve. If snake beans are unavailable, use plain green beans instead.
