Fasoulia - A delicious kidney bean dish

Ingredients

  • 1 cup dried kidney beans (or 2 cans of kidney beans if you’re in a hurry)
  • 4 cups water or broth (vegetable or chicken)
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
  • Lemon wedges (for serving)

Instructions

  1. If you’re using dried kidney beans, soak them overnight in water. The next day, drain and rinse them.
  2. In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until it’s soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Then, toss in the garlic, cumin, and paprika. Stir it up for about a minute to get those spices all fragrant.
  3. Next, add your soaked kidney beans (or canned beans if you’re using them) to the pot. Pour in water or broth and bring it to a boil. Once it’s boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 30-40 minutes, or until the beans are tender. If you’re using canned beans, just simmer for about 15-20 minutes, making sure everything is nice and hot.
  4. Season with salt and pepper to taste. You can always adjust the spices to suit your preference—don’t be shy to make it yours!
  5. Once it’s done, ladle it into bowls, sprinkle with some fresh parsley, and serve it up with a lemon wedge on the side for that zesty kick.
  6. Enjoy your Fasoulia with your favorite bread or just as it is. It’s hearty enough to stand alone and bring comfort to any breakfast table!
