MIXED BEAN AND WINTER SQUASH STEW WITH FRESH BASIL



Mixed Bean and Winter Squash Stew with Fresh Basil image

I usually use a combination of white and red or borlotti beans for this stew. The fresh or frozen limas add a pale green, fresh bean to the mix. Soaking the beans is not absolutely necessary, but I find that they cook more evenly and have a more uniform, pillowy texture if I do.

Categories     dinner, one pot, soups and stews, main course

Time 2h30m

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pound mixed beans, like pintos, borlottis, white beans, red beans and giant limas, soaked for 6 hours or overnight in 2 quarts water
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon sweet paprika
1 medium onion, chopped
3 large garlic cloves, minced or put through a press
A bouquet garni made with a bay leaf, a Parmesan rind and a couple of sprigs of fresh thyme
1 1/2 pounds winter squash, peeled and cut into cubes
1/2 pound fresh or frozen lima beans
1 pound tomatoes, peeled, seeded and chopped, or 1 14-ounce can, with liquid
Salt
freshly ground pepper to taste
1/4 cup chopped or slivered fresh basil
Freshly grated Parmesan for serving

Steps:

  • Drain the beans through a strainer set over a bowl. Transfer to a large, heavy soup pot or Dutch oven. Measure the liquid in the bowl and add enough water to measure 2 quarts. Add to the beans and bring to a gentle boil over medium heat. Cover, reduce the heat to low and simmer 1 hour. Add salt to taste and the bouquet garni, and continue to simmer until tender but intact, about 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large, heavy frying pan and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until the onion is tender, about 5 minutes, and add the paprika. Stir together for about a minute, and add the garlic and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, for a minute or two, until the garlic and onions are very fragrant, and stir in the tomatoes. Cook, stirring often, until the tomatoes are cooked down and fragrant, about 5 to 10 minutes. Add a ladleful of broth from the beans and stir to deglaze the bottom of the pan.
  • Stir the onion mixture into the beans. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add the winter squash and lima beans. Cover and simmer for about 30 minutes, until the squash and all the beans are tender. Taste and adjust salt, and add freshly ground pepper. Remove the bouquet garni. Just before serving stir in the fresh basil. Serve in wide soup bowls, passing Parmesan for sprinkling.

GREEK STEWED GREEN BEANS AND YELLOW SQUASH WITH TOMATOES



Greek Stewed Green Beans and Yellow Squash With Tomatoes image

Green beans are one of many vegetables that both Greek and Turkish cooks stew with abundant olive oil in dishes known as ladera. This recipe is inspired by one of them, but it's a far cry from the authentic version, which requires three times as much oil and simmers for a longer time. Don't be put off by the faded color of the beans; they're comforting and delicious.

Categories     dinner, soups and stews, main course

Time 55m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
2 large garlic cloves, minced
1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed
3/4 pound yellow squash (3 medium squash), sliced
1 (14-ounce) can chopped tomatoes, or 1 1/2 cups peeled, chopped tomatoes
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint, parsley or dill
1 to 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a wide, covered skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat, and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until tender and translucent, five to eight minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for another minute until fragrant. Stir in the green beans, squash and remaining oil. Stir together for a few minutes, then add the tomatoes and 1/2 cup water. Bring to a simmer, then add salt and freshly ground pepper.
  • Cover and simmer 30 minutes until the beans are tender and the mixture is stew-like. Add the herbs, and simmer for another five to 10 minutes. Add lemon juice if desired. Taste, and adjust seasonings with salt and pepper. Serve hot or at room temperature.
