Ingredients
- 1 cup black-eyed peas 7 ounces/200 grams, dry
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 1 onion large, chopped
- 2 carrot medium, sliced thinly
- 1 ½ cup crushed tomatoes may use canned- 12 ounces/360 grams
- 1 bay leaf
- 2-3 tablespoons dill chopped
- parsley for serving
- salt
- black pepper
Instructions
- Soak the black eyed peas in water for about 30 minutes. After that rinse in plenty of water.
- In a pot, heat 4 tablespoons of olive oil and sauté the chopped onion and the carrot until the onion is translucent.
- Add the black eyed peas to the pot and sauté for 1-2 minutes.
- Add the tomato, the bay leaf, dill and pepper and mix well.
- Add hot water until the beans are covered (about 1 inch over).
- Simmer for 30-40 minutes checking the water levels, add a bit of hot water as needed (about 2-3 tablespoons each time), you do not want this to be watery or like a soup, but thick. I prefer to add less water in the beginning and add as needed later.
- The beans are ready when they are soft.
- Remove from heat and remove the bay leaf, add salt to taste and mix.
- Serve as is or with a sprinkle of parsley. You may also accompany it with a piece of feta.
