Borlotti Beans and Aduki Beans, cubed potatoes, sliced carrots and onions, chopped red pepper and canned tomatoes stewed in a rich paprika flavoured tomato sauce. Garlic and cayenne adding their own ooomph to the mix.
At the end of cooking I'll stir in 125 ml of natural yoghurt.
Other combinations of beans may be used. I've even emptied a can of regular baked beans into the pot along with flagelot beans and the ever popular red kidney beans. Adding vegetables extends it a bit, if you don't have many beans just puff it out with more potatoes.
Potatoes absorb all the flavours making them even more gorgeous than they already are. I think spuds are my favourite vegetable.
This favourite veggie meal will be served with plain boiled rice.
To add some protein to the meal I'll make a Queen of Puddings using up some old bread, a couple of eggs and full cream milk.
Vegetarian food needn't be glum.
