Fresh İspir Bean Stew is made by simmering fresh İspir beans with onion, tomato and olive oil. Soften the onion in olive oil, add the tomato and beans, then add enough water to cook them until tender. Fresh beans do not need the soaking used for dried beans.
İspir beans are a well-known bean variety associated with İspir in Turkey’s Erzurum region. In Fresh İspir Bean Stew, using the beans fresh rather than dried gives the dish a tender texture and means you can skip the overnight soaking step.
Yes, but dried beans need a different preparation: soak them first and cook them until tender before finishing the stew with onion and tomato. They will not have exactly the same texture as the fresh beans used in Fresh İspir Bean Stew.
No, fresh İspir beans do not need to be soaked before making Fresh İspir Bean Stew. Rinse and prepare the fresh beans, then cook them with the onion, tomato and olive oil until tender; soaking is for dried beans.
Yes, a pressure cooker works for Fresh İspir Bean Stew, but fresh beans cook faster than dried ones. Use the cooker’s instructions for fresh beans and check the texture promptly so the beans stay whole rather than becoming mushy.
Yes, Fresh İspir Bean Stew can be made with pieces of meat or minced meat. Brown the meat with the onion before adding tomato and fresh beans; for a lighter, meat-free version, keep the traditional onion, tomato and olive oil base.
Fresh İspir Bean Stew pairs well with rice or bulgur pilaf, plain yogurt, and a crisp salad. Bread is also useful for soaking up the tomato and olive oil broth, making the stew a satisfying main dish.
Yes, let Fresh İspir Bean Stew cool, then freeze it in airtight, meal-sized containers. Thaw it in the refrigerator and reheat thoroughly; a splash of water can help restore the stew’s consistency if it has thickened.
Fresh İspir Bean Stew can cause gas in some people because beans contain carbohydrates that gut bacteria ferment. Cooking the beans until tender and starting with a smaller serving may make the dish more comfortable to eat.
Fresh İspir Bean Stew generally keeps for 3–4 days in a covered container in the refrigerator when it is cooled and stored promptly. Reheat only the portion you plan to eat, and discard stew that has been left out for a long time.

Fresh İspir Bean Stew brings together fresh beans associated with İspir in Turkey’s Erzurum region, onion, tomato and olive oil. Unlike a stew made with dried beans, it uses the beans fresh and cooks them gently with the vegetables until tender, in the style of a home-cooked Turkish bean dish.
In Turkey, it is often served warm or at room temperature, especially as part of a summer meal. Rice, bread or plain yoghurt make familiar accompaniments. The beans contribute fibre and plant protein, making the dish a filling, vegetable-forward option; a modest amount of olive oil keeps the preparation lighter. It works well as a main meal with a grain, or as one dish among several at the table.
