Instructions:

  1. Wash potatoes and cut into small chunks.  Place potatoes in large fry pan with olive oil.  Sprinkle potatoes with garlic salt.  Let fry for 3 to 4 minutes while forming crust on potatoes. Add the chopped garlic.  If using fresh green beans, add them now and let them cook with potatoes until crisp tender, about 10 to 12 minutes, adding water if needed.  Salt and pepper as desired.
  3. If using frozen green beans, sauté the potatoes in the oil for about 6 to 7 minutes until crusted.  Add the fresh frozen green beans, and garlic at this time.  Season with salt and pepper as desired.  Complete frying the green beans with the potatoes until green beans are crisp tender.  Remove to serving dish and serve warm.  Serves 4 to 5 servings.
