Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 kilogram borlotti beans (podded (they will weigh approximately 500 grams after podding))
  • 3 medium carrot peeled & sliced horizontally
  • 2 large tomato roughly chopped
  • 2 large onion peeled, halved & sliced into half moons
  • 1 green bell pepper deseeded, quartered lengthwise & finely sliced
  • 4 cloves garlic (peeled & finely sliced )
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon sugar
  • 1 mug water hot
  • 1 large handful flat leaf parsley (finely chopped)
  • salt to season
  • black pepper to season
  • 1 wedge lemon to serve, fresh

Instructions

  1. In a large saucepan, gently heat your olive oil and add the sliced carrots.
  2. Allow to cook for a few minutes before adding the sliced onion and green pepper.
  3. Stir around for 5 minutes or so until the onion starts to sweat and turn transparent.
  4. Now add your chopped tomato, garlic and hot water.
  5. Add salt & pepper to taste and the sugar and stir it all together.
  6. Bring to the boil and then leave to simmer for approximately 10 minutes.
  7. Now add your fresh borlotti beans.
  8. Stir them in, partially cover your pan with a lid and leave the barbunya pilaki to simmer for 30 minutes.
  9. After 30 minutes, check to see if your beans are soft.
  10. Remove from the heat and add the barbunya pilaki to a serving dish and leave to cool.
  11. 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.
