Algerian Broad Beans & Garlic ( Fèves En Sauce ) image

Here is my traditional recipe for Ros Bratel, which is a very old recipe from Algeria. It is simple to make with just a few ingredients & is really delicious. Eat it with plenty of fresh crusty bread for an inexpensive, light meal or have it as a side to roasted meats etc.

Time 50m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 kg broad bean, in the pod
1 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped (coriander)
6 garlic cloves
3 -4 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
salt (1/2 tsp minimum)
1 -1 1/2 teaspoon vinegar
600 ml water

Steps:

  • Top & tail the bean then remove the strings. Leave the beans in their pod. Cut into bitesize pieces - approx 1" long.
  • Peel & mince the garlic & place in a large, heavy bottomed pan (I like to use my Le Creuset Casserole / Dutch Oven) with the beans. Saute for 2 minutes.
  • Add the rest of the ingredients, cover & simmer until beans are tender - approx 25-30 minutes. Once the beans are tender, reduce the sauce to your prefered thickness & mix in the vinegar.
