Maize and beans mexican stew
October 04, 2020
I like mexican food, and this stew is wonderful! On top of that, it’s very easy to prepare a large quantity in no time.
The day before, soak one cup of dry corn (I usually use corn for popcorn) and 2 cups of dry beans (typically red kidney beans).
Put the corn and beans in a pressure cooker and cook for 15 minutes.
In the meanwhile, water fry 1 chopped onion and 1 garlic head (minced or crushed). After 5-10’, add:
- 2 tins of diced tomatoes
- 1/2 cup of sliced green chili
- 3 tsp smoked paprika
- 2 tsp chili powder
- 1 tsp provence herbs
- 1 tsp oregano
- 2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp turmeric
Let it simmer for 15’ until the tomato is cooked. Then mix with the corn and beans. Eat with brown rice, or like me: chapatis (interesting cultural mix!)
