Green Bean, Potato and Eggplant Stew brings together tender green beans, potatoes and eggplant, commonly cooked with onion and tomato in a Turkish home-style türlü. As the vegetables soften, they take on the flavour of the savoury tomato sauce and olive oil, making a gently rich, comforting dish rather than a sharply seasoned stew.
In Turkey it is served warm as a main or alongside other dishes, often with rice or bread; it is also pleasant at room temperature. For English-speaking readers, it works well as a plant-based centrepiece or as a side with grains. The vegetables provide fibre and potassium, with 2.8 g of fibre per 100 g. Use oil sparingly for a lighter version.
