ALGERIAN BEEF
Highly seasoned beef pairs with kidney beans and hominy in this Latin-inspired dish. Hominy is corn that has been soaked in lime or lye. The result is a versatile grain with a chewy texture and a very light, smoky-sour flavor.

ALGERIAN BROAD BEANS & GARLIC ( FèVES EN SAUCE )
Here is my traditional recipe for Ros Bratel, which is a very old recipe from Algeria. It is simple to make with just a few ingredients & is really delicious. Eat it with plenty of fresh crusty bread for an inexpensive, light meal or have it as a side to roasted meats etc.

Steps:
- Top & tail the bean then remove the strings. Leave the beans in their pod. Cut into bitesize pieces - approx 1" long.
- Peel & mince the garlic & place in a large, heavy bottomed pan (I like to use my Le Creuset Casserole / Dutch Oven) with the beans. Saute for 2 minutes.
- Add the rest of the ingredients, cover & simmer until beans are tender - approx 25-30 minutes. Once the beans are tender, reduce the sauce to your prefered thickness & mix in the vinegar.

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh, young broad beans. If you can't find fresh beans, you can use frozen or canned beans, but they will not be as flavorful.
- To easily remove the beans from their pods, blanch them in boiling water for a few minutes, then rinse them in cold water. The beans will slip out of the pods easily.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can mash the beans with a fork or potato masher. However, a food processor will give you a smoother consistency.
- To make the dish more flavorful, add a pinch of cumin or coriander to the spice mixture.
- Serve the dish immediately, or store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Algerian broad beans with garlic and lemon is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner.
