This recipe is from week one of my food blog, Travel by Stove. I am cooking one meal from every country in the world, starting with Abkhazia. This is an Abkhazian side dish, which is basically a bean mash flavored with cilantro and walnuts.
Ingredients:
15 ounces canned red kidney beans (or used dried)
1/2 cup water
1 garlic clove
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped
1/2 bunch cilantro
1/2 onion, finely chopped
1 ounce butter
salt
Directions:
1. Drain the kidney beans and place in a pot with a small amount of water. Warm over low heat.
2. Chop the walnuts, onion and garlic and cook in melted butter for 2 to 3 minutes.
3. Remove the beans from the stove and pour away most of the water. Mash the beans, then add the onion mixture and the chopped cilantro. Add salt to taste.
