A hearty, soul-warming red beans dish cooked slowly with aromatic spices.

Scale

2 cups dried red beans

1 medium onion, chopped

2 garlic cloves, minced

1 tsp cumin

Salt & Pepper to taste

Start by soaking dried beans overnight if time permits.

Heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat, sauté onion and garlic until fragrant.

Add beans, cumin, and enough water to cover the beans in a large pot. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer gently.

Around the hour mark, season your beans to taste with salt and pepper.

Ladle into bowls and enjoy with a side of crusty bread.

Soaking beans overnight reduces cooking time significantly.

Ensure a tight-fitting lid for even simmering.
