Stewed white beans
Description
Cooking dishes with beans always takes a lot of time, mostly due to preparation, as beans must be soaked in water—preferably overnight. You can add vegetables such as potatoes, carrots, and celery to make an excellent, nutritious, and hearty vegetable stew. This bean dish can be served as a side to meat or as a main course with flatbreads or freshly baked bread.
