Libyan white-bean and lamb stew with tomato and warm spices.

About Fasolia
Tasnim’s Libyan tabikhet fasolia is an everyday white-kidney-bean stew with meat and tomato sauce. This profile selects the printed lamb option and white-rice accompaniment from the published recipe.
Garlic, onion and red chilli flavour the sauce, with turmeric, seven spice, cumin and black pepper providing its seasoning. Tomato paste adds concentrated savoury depth, and coriander is the selected herbal finish.
Whole beans and pieces of lamb sit in broth made from the same meat. The sauce coats this substantial mixture, which the source presents warm with rice.
