Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

In a slow cooker crock, combine the soaked white kidney beans, tomato paste, red pimento sauce, chopped garlic, chopped onions, lemon juice, ground cumin, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly, ensuring the beans are well-coated with the flavorful mixture. (5 minutes)

02

Step
2 mins

Pour in the beef broth, then add enough water to completely submerge the bean mixture. (2 minutes)

03

Step
6 hrs

Cover and cook on High until the beans are tender and the liquid has thickened to a desirable stew-like consistency, approximately 6 hours. Check occasionally to ensure it's not too soupy; the sauce should be rich and clinging to the beans. (6 hours)

For a vegetarian version, substitute vegetable broth for the beef broth.
Feel free to add other vegetables like carrots, celery, or bell peppers for added nutrition and flavor.
A squeeze of fresh lemon juice at the end brightens the flavors and adds a touch of acidity.
Serve with a dollop of plain yogurt or a sprinkle of fresh parsley for garnish.
