Rinse the green beans under cold water to remove any dirt. Trim the ends and, if desired, cut them into smaller, bite-sized pieces for easier consumption.
Peel and Cube Potatoes
Peel the baking potatoes and cut them into large cubes, about 1-2 inches in size. This size ensures that the potatoes cook evenly and absorb the flavors of the dish.
Dice the Ham
If your ham is not already diced, cut it into bite-sized chunks. This allows the ham to integrate well with the other ingredients and ensures each bite is flavorful.
Chop the Onion
If you choose to use an onion, chop it into small pieces. Onions add a subtle sweetness and depth of flavor to the dish.
