Loubia (White Bean and Tomato Stew)

  1. Step 1

    Add the olive oil to a large pot over a medium-low heat. Add the onions, cover the pan, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are soft and translucent, about 7 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Add the beans, tomatoes, garlic, parsley, paprika, ginger, turmeric and salt. Pour in the vegetable stock, cover with a lid and cook until the beans are fully cooked and soft, 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 25 minutes. Keep an eye on the pot towards the end of the cooking process to make sure that the beans don’t dry out and all the stock evaporates (if this happens, add in water progressively to achieve a stew consistency).

  3. Step 3

    To make the optional parsley oil, stir together the olive oil, parsley, white wine vinegar, salt and sugar in a small bowl. Cover and keep in the refrigerator until ready to serve, up to 48 hours.

  4. Step 4

Taste the stew and adjust the seasoning with salt if necessary. Serve immediately with a drizzle of parsley oil or olive oil, if desired, and bread on the side.
