My mum used to make this when we were little. It tasted so delicious and awrming after returning from school on a cold and snowy day.
Chopp an onion or 2. fry dary or in frylight.
Wash some calanolli/Broteli beans (pink ones with drak red strips), add to the pot with some pieces of lamb or beef.
I use a large handful of beans and a lump of meat 4-6 ounces per person.
If you like you can add half a can of tomatoes for superspeed food- I make it without. Add some water, season with salt & pepper to cover the meat and beans.
Bring to boil and then turn down the heat and simmer (make sure there is enough water in the pan - just enough to keep the mixture moist). Stir from time to time so it does not stick to the pan.
When beans are cooked very well and guey.
Peel a couple of potatoes and quarter. Add to the mixture and let it cook.
The mixture needs to have same consistancy of a can of baked beans.
Dish up in bowls and serve hot.
You can squeeze some lemon juice on it or put a dollop of FF fromanage fraise/yougart and sprinkle with some parsely.
If you wish you can have it with boiled sprouts/broccoli/Green beans or any other vegetable you fancy.
Enjoy it
