Instructions
- In a large saucepan, gently heat your olive oil and add the sliced carrots.
- Allow to cook for a few minutes before adding the sliced onion and green pepper.
- Stir around for 5 minutes or so until the onion starts to sweat and turn transparent.
- Now add your chopped tomato, garlic and hot water.
- Add salt & pepper to taste and the sugar and stir it all together.
- Bring to the boil and then leave to simmer for approximately 10 minutes.
- Now add your fresh borlotti beans.
- Stir them in, partially cover your pan with a lid and leave the barbunya pilaki to simmer for 30 minutes.
- After 30 minutes, check to see if your beans are soft.
- Remove from the heat and add the barbunya pilaki to a serving dish and leave to cool.
- Once at room temperature, serve your barbunya pilaki with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the top and a garnish of chopped parsley.
Notes
- If you are using tinned barnbunya (borlotti) beans, use an 800 gram tin and drain the liquid. Rinse them and add them 10 minutes before the end of cooking time.
- If you are using tinned, chopped tomatoes, a 400 gram tin should be enough.
- All weights are approximate and you can add or reduce quantities slightly to suit your personal taste.
