Ingredients
- 2 lb lamb , cut into chunks
- 1 lb White beans
- 4 onion chopped
- 2 green bell pepper ground
- 2 bell pepper ground, red
- 5 tomato peeled, seeded and diced
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 cup vegetable oil (or peanut oil)
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda aka natron
- salt
- black pepper
- mayonnaise
Instructions
- Soak the beans in water overnight and rinse thoroughly.
- Mix natron and white beans and boil 45 minutes in plenty of water in a pressure cooker preferably.
- Rinse with hot water and drain.
- In a large heavy-bottomed pot, heat the oil, and brown the meat over medium heat.
- Add the onions and chopped peppers and sauté for 5 minutes.
- Add the tomatoes and garlic and sauté for another 5 minutes.
- Add the tomato paste and water, then the beans.
- Cook 30 minutes over medium heat, and simmer for 30 minutes over low heat.
- When cooked, increase the heat to reduce the sauce if it is too liquid.
- This dish should be served with mayonnaise.
Notes
- To reach perfect tenderness, the beans should not suffer too much of a temperature difference. So after the first step, do not cool and coordinate both steps closely.
