White Beans With Meat (Etli Kuru Fasulye)
"Posting for ZWT6 North Africa/Middle East region. From www.turkishfoodandrecipes.com As mentioned on the recipe "White Beans with Meat is a very traditional and common dish in Turkey, especially when it is served with pilaf and pickles.""
- Ready In:
- 3hrs 30mins
- Ingredients:
- 10
- Serves:
-
4-6
ingredients
- 2 cups white beans
- 1⁄2 lb beef or 1/2 lb lamb, chopped
- 2 onions, chopped
- 2 tablespoons oil
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1 dried red peppers or 1 green pepper, chopped
- 1⁄2 teaspoon baking soda (optional)
- 1⁄4 teaspoon chili red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1 tablespoon salt, to taste
- 1 cup hot water
directions
- Wash white beans, place them in a pot and cover with water (approximately 1 inch above the beans). Leave them in water overnight or for at least 12 hours. The next day, cook them with the same water till beans get soft over low heat. You could add baking soda to have softer beans quicker. When they are soft, add ½ tbsp of salt.
- In another pot, sauté chopped meat with oil till they are brown. Then add onions and sauté for 2-3 minutes over medium heat. Stir in peppers and tomato paste. Add one cup of hot water and the remaining salt, and then simmer till the meat is soft. Transfer the cooked white beans into the pot. Simmer for 10 minutes over low heat.
- Serve with or over rice.
- Note: You can also use 2 cans of white beans and skip the instructions given in the first paragraph, but it may not be as delicious as the one with dried beans.

Welcome to my page, Born and raised in Montana and now I’m retired Navy and I live in North East Florida on 5 acres in the country. I have enjoyed cooking for as long as I can remember. Thanks to everyone that has tried and reviewed my recipes :>)
My review guidelines are as follows:
5 stars - Wonderful ! Perfect as posted and plan to make this recipe again!
4 stars - Liked it a lot and will make again but will probably alter the recipe slightly.
3 stars - OK but to make it again would require major changes to the original recipe to suit my tastes.
2 stars - Really didn't like it. Could be personal preference or the recipe just didn't meet expectations.
