- 2 large carrots (grated)
- 2 leeks (cut into rings)
- 1 large onion (chopped)
- 3 cloves garlic (chopped)
- 1 courgette (zucchini) (cut into cubes)
- 2 pointy paprika or bell peppers (cut into half rings)
- 2 spring onions (cut into rings)
- 250 grams chestnut mushrooms (cut into slices)
- 200 grams tomato sugo (passata) (you can add more if needed)
- 2 large tsp shoarma spice mix (Or Italian or Mexican spice mix)
- ¼ tsp salt (¼ tsp with the veggies and ¼ tsp with the beans)
- (olive) oil
- 400 grams dried kidney beans (soaked, rinsed and cooked as per instructions on the packet)
Cut up all your veggies and start by frying them in some (olive) oil until everything is lightly browned and cooked
Add the tomato sugo until the veggies are blended. They shouldn't be swimming in the sugo, just add a little so everything comes together
Add in the salt and spices and leave that to simmer on very low heat, while you shallow fry the beans
Rinse your cooked (kidney) beans and shallow fry them in a small layer of (olive) oil on pretty high heat and stirring often so nothing burns
When they start to crack, sizzle, and pop and you see the change in texture, stir in the salt
Taste and add in more salt if you like
Scoop the veggies into a bowl, add in a good amount of beans and top it off with some spring onions.Enjoy!
