BAKED ADZUKI BEANS WITH EGGPLANT AND TOMATOES



Baked Adzuki Beans With Eggplant and Tomatoes image

This isn't quite a stew, a chili, or a ratouille, yet it reminds me a bit of each. You'll just have to try it for yourself and see what you think. Whatever you want to call it, we call it tasty. Can be served as a side dish as well, but we like it on it's own accompanied by a nice loaf of a crusty bread. Plan ahead, the preparation time does not include three hour soaking time for the beans.

Time 1h30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup dried adzuki beans
1 bouquet garni (thyme, parsley, and bayleaf)
2 small eggplants, unpeeled,and cut in 1 inch cubes
kosher salt or sea salt
6 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 1/2 cups canned chopped tomatoes
1 cup chicken stock (or 1 bouillon cube dissolved in 1 cup water)
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
salt and pepper, to taste
4 tablespoons fresh basil, shredded
1/2 cup fresh grated parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Pick over and discard any damaged beans or stones; rinse the beans, then place in a sauce pan adding plenty of water to cover; soak for a minimum of three hours (can be all day).
  • Drain the beans and return to the sauce pan with enough water to cover by 2 inches.
  • Add the bouquet garni and bring water to the boil; reduce heat and simmer uncovered until the beans are tender (20 to 40 minutes); drain and set aside, discarding the bouquet garni.
  • Place the eggplant cubes in a colander and sprinkle with kosher or sea salt; let drain for 30 minutes, then rinse and pat dry with paper towels (this step can be done while the beans are boiling).
  • Pre-heat oven to 375°F.
  • In a large frying pan over medium heat, heat 4 TBS of the olive oil then add the eggplant and saute until lightly browned on all sides (5 to 10 minutes).
  • When the eggplant has browned, transfer to a large baking dish (I use an oval 35 cm X 24 cm).
  • In the same frying pan, heat the remaining 2 TBS olive oil and saute the onion until it begins to soften but not brown (about 5 minutes).
  • Add in the garlic and continue to saute 1 minute.
  • Add the tomatoes, stock, allspice, red pepper flakes, and salt and pepper to taste; simmer slowly for 5 minutes, then transfer the mixture to the baking dish.
  • Add the beans and the basil to the baking dish, and mix everything well.
  • Sprinkle with the parmesan cheese and bake until golden, about 20 minutes.
  • Serve immediately.

This is a Gillian McKeith recipe that I've grown to enjoy. I have added diced sweet potatoes to the veggie mix at times for a sweeter taste with wonderful results. Keep in mind that cook time will vary on how soft or crisp you like your sweet potato topping.
