Ingredients
  • 125 g red kidney beans
  • 100.1 g white onion
  • 2 clove garlic
  • 112.1 g harissa paste
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 0.5 cup water
  • 0.25 tsp salt
  • 99.8 g ciabatta bread
  • 3 g sesame seeds
Method
  1. 011. Soak the dried red kidney beans in water overnight for at least 8 hours. Drain and transfer to a saucepan with fresh water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until tender and creamy, about 60 to 70 minutes. Drain, reserving some cooking liquid, yielding approximately 125g cooked beans.
  2. 022. Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Add the finely diced white onions and minced garlic, saut)ing until soft, sweet, and translucent, about 8 minutes.
  3. 033. Stir in the harissa paste and bloom for 1 minute until fragrant and deep red.
  4. 044. Add the cooked kidney beans along with 1/2 cup of water (or cooking liquid) and salt. Simmer for 10 minutes over low heat, allowing the red pepper spices to thoroughly infuse the beans until the stew thickens.
  5. 055. Slice and toast the ciabatta until golden and crisp around the edges.
  6. 066. Ladle the rich bean wat into a serving bowl, sprinkle generously with toasted sesame seeds, and serve hot with the toasted ciabatta on the side.
