Meatless low-oil white bean stew is a Turkish-style home-cooked dish of white beans simmered with tomato and onion, using little oil. Kuru fasulye is a familiar staple in Turkey, made in many homes and lokantas; this meat-free version lets the beans take centre stage.
The beans turn tender as the tomato and onion cook down into a savoury, substantial sauce. It is commonly served for lunch or dinner with rice pilaf and pickles. The dish provides plant protein and fibre, with 5.4 g of fibre per 100 g. For a lighter plate, serve a smaller portion of rice alongside a crisp salad, or use cooked beans to make preparation quicker.
