FUUL (SOMALI-STYLE FAVA BEAN STEW)



Fuul (Somali-Style Fava Bean Stew) image

Fuul is a beloved fava bean stew that has long been woven into the culinary fabric of East Africa, North Africa and the Middle East. It's also known as ful medames or foul mudammas. This comforting stew is served in a variety of ways: slow-simmered whole beans topped with juicy tomatoes and olive oil, or simply crushed and spritzed with lemon juice. This recipe is for Somali-style fuul, which consists of smashed fava beans and receives its intoxicating smell from the xawaash mix. Fuul is eaten for breakfast alongside eggs and fresh anjero, and is perfect for suhoor or iftar.

Categories     dinner, soups and stews, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium onion, finely diced
5 garlic cloves, minced or crushed
4 large tomatoes, roughly chopped
1 teaspoon fine sea salt or to taste
4 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground cardamom
1 (14-ounce) can small fava beans, rinsed
1/4 cup tomato sauce
1 handful cilantro leaves, washed and roughly chopped
Anjero or other flatbread, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • In a medium pot or deep skillet over medium heat, warm up the olive oil. Once the olive oil is hot, add the onion and stir. Let the onions cook, stirring occasionally, until they are soft and almost translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • Once the onions have cooked, add in the garlic and let it cook until it softens, about 2 minutes. Add the roughly chopped tomatoes and let them cook, stirring occasionally, for 7 to 8 minutes or until they start to break down. Add the salt.
  • While the tomato mixture cooks, prepare the xawaash mix: Add the cumin, coriander, black pepper, cinnamon and cardamom to a small nonstick pan. Toast over low heat, stirring continuously, for 1 minute or until the spice mix becomes fragrant.
  • Add the xawaash mix to the simmering tomato and onions. While the tomatoes finish cooking, add the rinsed fava beans to a medium bowl and use a pestle to mash them until there are almost no whole beans left. Stir the mashed beans into the tomatoes.
  • Stir in the tomato sauce, 1 cup of water and the chopped cilantro leaves into the bean and tomato mixture. Cover the pan and simmer on low heat for 15 minutes. Stir in up to an additional ⅓ cup of water if the stew gets too thick.
  • Serve the fuul with anjero, if desired. Leftovers keep for about a week in the refrigerator.

SOUTHERN STYLE BEEF STEW



Southern Style Beef Stew image

This is how my mother in law makes beef stew and she is from Alabama. As southern as you can get. Do not use generic tomatoes, they make this bland. I use arm shoulder roast and cut it up cause some beef stew meat is too tough. You can also make this with turtle meat and call it turtle stew, that's what we do! You can adjust the ingredients according to your own taste. We love to eat this with buttered bread.

Arabian Gulf Pot Pies image

Martha merges the popular Arabian Gulf dish known as thareed, a meat-and-vegetable stew served over thin, cracker-like bread called rgaag, with an American comfort food that's a dinnertime favorite-chicken pot pie.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Pie & Tarts Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 17

3 tablespoons ghee
6 boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 medium onions, thinly sliced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 serrano chile, thinly sliced
1 medium carrot, coarsely chopped (1/2 cup)
2 1/2 cups baby turnips, quartered
1 small eggplant, coarsely chopped (3 cups)
1 zucchini, coarsely chopped (2 cups)
4 medium tomatoes, chopped (4 cups)
3 tablespoons tomato paste
1 teaspoon Arabic Spice Blend
1/2 cup packed fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves, chopped
3 pounds frozen puff pastry (preferably all-butter), thawed
Unbleached all-purpose flour, for dusting
1 large egg, plus 1 large yolk

Steps:

  • In a large Dutch oven, heat 1 tablespoon ghee over medium-high. Season chicken well with salt and pepper. Cook, working in batches as necessary, until chicken is lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Remove from pan.
  • Add remaining 2 tablespoons ghee along with onions, garlic, and serrano to pot. Cook until very soft and translucent, about 10 minutes. Add carrot and turnips and cook until just tender, about 4 minutes. Add eggplant, zucchini, and tomatoes and season with salt and pepper. Cook until vegetables are tender and tomatoes begin to break down. Combine tomato paste, spice blend, and 2 cups water and add to pot. Cook until aromatic, about 2 minutes.
  • Return chicken and any juices to pot and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until thickened, and chicken and vegetables are tender, about 25 minutes. Let cool slightly. Stir in parsley and season with salt and pepper. Ladle into six (1 1/2-cup) shallow ramekins; let cool.
  • Roll out thawed puff pastry on a lightly floured surface to a 1/4-inch thickness. Cut out six circles that are 1/2 inch wider than ramekins. Cut vents in the center of each circle. Transfer puff pastry circles to a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for 15 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together egg, yolk, and 1 teaspoon water. Remove puff pastry circles from freezer. Top each ramekin with a puff pastry circle, crimping edges over sides to seal, and brush with egg wash. Transfer to refrigerator and chill for 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, preheat oven to 425 degrees. Transfer ramekins to a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until puff pastry is deep golden brown and filling is bubbling, 20 to 25 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest ingredients possible. This will ensure that your stew is packed with flavor.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices. The combination of cumin, coriander, and cardamom is classic, but you can also add other spices like cinnamon, ginger, or paprika to taste.
  • Use a variety of vegetables. This will give your stew a colorful and flavorful boost.
  • Brown the meat before adding it to the stew. This will help to develop its flavor and prevent it from becoming tough.
  • Simmer the stew for at least 1 hour. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Serve the stew with your favorite sides. Some popular options include rice, couscous, or naan bread.

Conclusion:

Southern Arabian stew is a delicious and hearty dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a great way to use up leftover meat and vegetables. With its rich flavor and variety of ingredients, this stew is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a comforting and flavorful meal, give Southern Arabian stew a try.
