Bosnian Bean Stew
Also known as: Bosanski grah
White beans slowly cooked with dried meat, potatoes and vegetables.

About Bosnian Bean Stew
Chakula presents this Bosanski grah as a traditional recipe enjoyed by the family. White beans cook slowly with dried meat, potato and carrot in a substantial Bosnian bean stew.
Onion and garlic begin the sunflower-oil base, while tomato concentrate gives colour and a savoury tomato note. Salt and pepper season the broth around the beans and vegetables.
The dried meat and diced vegetables remain together in the finished stew. The beans soften during the long simmer, producing a simple bowl with a thick, hearty appearance.
