Middle Eastern Kidney Bean Beef Stew
(Fasouliya Hamra)
Growing up, I didn’t know anyone that ate this stew. Most Palestinians eat green bean stew (Fasouliya khadra) or white bean stew (Fasouliya bayda). If you’ve tried this, you know this is the superior one 😂 it’s absolutely delicious and kids love it.
Ingredients⬇️⬇️⬇️
Kidney beans: the heart of this recipe.
Beef stew meat: to make it even more fulfilling.
Yellow onion: flavor enhancer.
Olive oil: to sauté onion, meat, garlic, and cilantro (or parsley).
Garlic powder: for the garlicky sweet touch.
Onion powder: adds a yummy flavor.
Black pepper: it has a woody, nutty flavor.
Bullion powder: it has a rich flavor and makes a great addition to any stew.
Ginger powder: mildly sweet.
Cumin: so nutty and warm.
Ground nutmeg: a great companion for savory meals.
Tomato sauce: tangy balance.
Tomato paste: it adds rich flavor and thickens the stew.
Hot water: to cook this delicious recipe.
Salt: add it to taste.
Cloves of garlic: to make things even better.
Cilantro (or parsley): for fragrance and taste.
Steps To Prep
First, wash the beans and soak them for a minimum of 12 hours.
Then, to a pot, add the olive oil and sauté the onion until soft and translucent.
Next, add the beef and sauté until browned and no longer red.
After that, add the seasonings and mix.
Then add the drained beans and mix again.
Up next, add the water, and cover. Let it come to a boil before lowering the heat until it’s cooked all the way through, and the beans are soft.
After that, add the tomato sauce and paste and let it cook for another 10 minutes.
Last, fry the garlic and cilantro or parsley in olive oil until the garlic is golden and fragrant, then add to the stew pot. Make sure to salt to taste.
Finally, mix and serve with vermicelli rice.
