Step 1

Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.

Step 2

In a large Dutch oven or oven-safe pot with a lid, heat 1/4 cup of the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the garlic, oregano, and cumin. Cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, another 2 minutes.

Step 3

Add the tomatoes, bay leaf, green beans, potatoes, carrots, and water. Season to taste with salt and black pepper. Raise the heat and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 4

Cover and transfer the pot to the oven. Bake until the sauce thickens slightly and the beans and potatoes can easily be cut with the side of your fork, about 35 minutes or so. Check once partway through cooking, adding a little bit of water if needed.

Step 5

Remove and discard the bay leaf. Stir in the lemon juice, parsley, and generous drizzle of olive oil (about 1/4 cup or so). Serve with your choice of rice or rustic bread to sop up the sauce.
