Mod de preparare:

Ceapa si ardeiul rosu se curata si sunt taiate marunt. Intr-o tigaie se pune ulei si se lasa legumele la calit cateva minute pana cand ceapa devine aurie. Adaugati pastaile spalate in tigaie si acoperiti cu apa (1 cana). Lasati sa fiarba pana cand apa scade si se formeaza sosul. Adaugati pasta de tomate, sare, piper si cateii de usturoi dati prin presa. Amestecati foarte bine si mai lasati aproximativ 5 minute pe foc. Opriti focul si adaugati patrunjel verde sau marar tocat marunt.

Separat intr-o oala se pune malaiul, apa si sarea la fiert. Mamaliga se amesteca incontinuu pe durata fierberii. Dupa aproximativ 10 minute ea se ingroasa si este gata de pus pe farfurie. Pentru a face mujdeiul, cateii de usturoi se dau prin presa si peste ei se adauga: sare, piper, 1 lingurita de ulei si 3 lingurite de apa. Se amesteca foarte bine pana cand se formeaza o pasta.

Peel and finely chop the onion and red bell pepper. Heat the oil in a skillet and sauté the vegetables for a few minutes until the onion turns golden. Add the washed green beans to the skillet and cover with water (1 cup). Simmer until the water reduces and a sauce forms. Stir in the tomato paste, salt, pepper, and pressed garlic cloves. Mix well and cook for another 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and sprinkle with finely chopped parsley or dill.

Separately, in a pot, combine the cornmeal, water, and salt and bring to a boil. Stir the polenta continuously while it cooks. After about 10 minutes, it will thicken and be ready to serve.
