Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.

Pour in the water or vegetable broth and bring to a gentle simmer.
Step 7
Add the cubed potatoes, green beans, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.
Step 8
Cover the pot with a lid and let the mixture simmer over low to medium heat for 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes and green beans are tender.
Step 9
Taste and adjust seasoning if required.
