Fasolia Khadra
Also known as: فاصوليا خضراء
Palestinian green-bean and tomato stew with spiced beef and rice.
About Fasolia Khadra
Batata and Bundora document this Palestinian family fasolia khadra among recipes passed down through their mother, grandmother and aunts. This version selects beef, combined with green beans, onion and canned tomato.
Cinnamon, cardamom and nutmeg season the beef cooking liquid. Onion adds an aromatic base to the beans, with salt and pepper completing the separately prepared vegetable mixture.
The meat and tomato join the cooked green beans, with some of the same beef broth bringing the stew together. It is served over steamed rice; the separately described vegan and pita-bread variation is not selected.
