Bean Pod Dish with Sausages

To prepare a delicious bean and meat dish, we start by ensuring that all the ingredients are properly prepared. First, we wash the beans under a stream of cold water, making sure to remove any impurities. Then, we trim the ends of each bean and break them into smaller pieces so that they cook evenly and absorb the flavors from the sauce.

The next step involves the onion, which is carefully peeled and chopped finely to release its aroma during cooking. The carrot, an essential ingredient that will add a sweet note to the dish, is peeled and sliced into thin rounds to cook quickly and evenly.

In a large pot, we add the oil and let it heat up. Then, we add the chopped onion to sauté, stirring occasionally until it becomes translucent and starts to release its aroma, about 2-3 minutes. Once the onion is sautéed, we add the carrots and let the mixture sauté together for a few minutes until the carrots become slightly soft.

Once the vegetables are ready, we add the broken beans and mix well, ensuring that the beans combine with the onion and carrot. We pour enough water into the pot to cover the ingredients and add the tomatoes, which we wash and cut into 3-4 pieces, depending on their size. We season with salt to taste and cover the pot with a lid, letting it simmer over medium heat.

As the beans cook, we take care of the sausages. We slice them thinly and fry them in a separate pan until they become golden and crispy. The garlic, an ingredient that will enhance the flavors of the dish, is peeled and sliced, ready to be added at the end of cooking.

When the beans are nearly cooked and become soft, we add the diced bell pepper and the chili paste, which will add some spiciness. After the beans are fully cooked, we add the fried sausages and sliced garlic, carefully mixing to combine all the flavors. We turn off the heat and let the dish sit covered for a few minutes so that the flavors meld and intensify.

Finally, we serve this dish hot, enjoying the delicious flavors and varied textures it offers. Bon appétit!
