Can green beans be fried with tomatoes? The answer is yes. Eating tomatoes and green beans together is more nutritious than eating them alone. Tomatoes have a particularly high vitamin C content, while the protein of green beans is not only high but also of high quality. Proteins are better to eat together.
But when we make beans and tomatoes, we usually make the two separately. We usually blanch the beans in boiling water first, and then blanch them in cold water, so that the fried beans will be crispy. Therefore, there is no reason why beans and tomatoes cannot be fried together. Frying them separately is just to make them taste better.
