SWEET & SOUR BEANS

​This is a brilliant and incredibly easy dish I adapted from a macrobiotic recipe, originally using adzuki beans. It works equally well with tinned kidney beans and literally takes minutes to make!

We made it at The Jeely Piece Club this morning, as one of our dishes, and everyone loved it so I thought I'd share it!

This has to be one of the easiest recipes ever and its perfect for a quick weekend meal.

It really is about the healthiest fast food recipe I know!


The hardest bit is chopping the onions!

Don’t use cheap soy sauce which is artificially flavoured with MSG and really bad for your health. Shoyu and tamari are naturally fermented healthy alternatives.  Clearspring  do a good range of organic sauces.

Beans are literally the perfect food, they can lower cholesterol, protect your heart, balance your blood sugar making you feel fuller for longer and improve your digestion.

This is delicious served with some brown rice and simply steamed greens for a healthy, balanced meal which will support every system in your body. Give it a go, your body will thank you!
 
Ingredients (serves 4-6)
  • 2 tins kidney beans
  • 2 onions, finely sliced
  • 1 pepper, finely sliced
  • 2 tablespoons rapeseed, olive oil or sesame oil plus 1 tablespoon for sautéing the onions and pepper
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar or rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons rice syrup or honey or other liquid sweetener
  • 2 tablespoons shoyu or tamari  sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic crushed
 
Method
  1. Heat a tablespoon of oil in a pan and sauté the onions and pepper for around 10 minutes.
  2. Drain and rinse the kidney beans and add to the pan.
  3. Whisk olive oil, vinegar, rice syrup, shoyu or tamari sauce and garlic in a jug to combine, season with sea salt.
  4. Add the sauce to the other ingredients and warm through.
  5. Serve with brown rice and steamed greens.
