TOMATO ZUCCHINI STEW



Tomato Zucchini Stew image

Meet the Cook: This recipe's "famous" with my friends and the younger friends of my grown daughter and granddaughter. I make it for potlucks and other get-togethers. The town where I live is now considered "city". When my late husband and I loved here 40 years ago, though, it was country. He was an ex-farm boy, and always had a large vegetable garden. We were well supplied for winter! -Helen Miller, Hickory Hills, Illinois

STEWED CHICKPEAS WITH TOMATOES AND ZUCCHINI



Stewed Chickpeas with Tomatoes and Zucchini image

Provided by Anne Burrell

Categories     side-dish

Time 2h45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 pound dried chickpeas, soaked overnight
1 large onion, 1/2 cut into 1/2-inch dice and the other half left whole
1 carrot, peeled
1 rib celery
4 cloves garlic, 2 whole and 2 smashed and finely chopped
2 bay leaves
1 thyme bundle
Kosher salt
Extra-virgin olive oil
Pinch crushed red pepper
1 teaspoon cumin seeds, coarsely ground
1 teaspoon fennel seeds, coarsely ground
3 beefsteak tomatoes, cut into 1/2-inch dice, reserve the seeds and juices
2 large zucchini, green part only, cut into 1/2-inch dice

Steps:

  • Beans: In a large pot, combine the beans, the whole half onion, carrot, celery, whole garlic cloves, bay leaves and thyme bundle. Fill the pot with water to cover the surface of the beans by 2 inches. DO NOT add salt here! Adding salt at this point can prevent the beans from cooking and make the skins of the beans tough or make them break. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Simmer for 1 hour and then do the "5 bean" test. Bite 5 beans, if they are all properly cooked, continue on, if not cook the beans for another 10 to 15 minutes and try again.
  • When the beans are cooked, turn off the heat and season the water abundantly with salt. This will allow the beans to absorb seasoning without making the skins tough. Let the beans sit in the salted water for 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the onion, carrot, celery, garlic, thyme and bay leaves. Reserve 1 cup of bean cooking water, strain the beans and set aside.
  • Stew: (This can be started while the chickpeas are cooking! Multitasking! Woohoo!)
  • Coat a large wide pot with olive oil, then add the diced onions, salt, to taste, crushed red pepper, ground cumin and fennel seeds. Bring the oil to a medium heat and cook the spices until they are very aromatic and the onions are soft, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the 2 smashed garlic cloves and cook another 2 minutes. Add the diced tomatoes, and zucchini. Season with salt and taste, adjust the seasoning if needed (it will). Cook the tomato-zucchini mixture for about 15 minutes. Add in the cooked chickpeas and reserved bean cooking water and simmer until all the bean water has evaporated and the mixture looks like a stew, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Transfer the stew to a serving bowl and serve immediately or at room temperature.
  • Hey chickpea!
