I combined this and another similar recipe that used fresh green beans for a dinner side last night. I really liked this. I added the tahini while the veg were still cooking and it coated everything lightly. Added a wonderful earthy flavor to my sauteed veggies. Thanks for sharing.

This is a very good recipe .. I added buttermilk instead of water because I find the taste of tahini overpowering .. thanks Char ..
