Peel the outer skin of the beans, wash and boil in a liter of water for 5′. The weight of the beans after peeling will be half of the original. |
Drain in a colander and set aside for later. |
Wash and drain the meat. Cut the meat in pieces. Put the olive oil and the meat pieces in the pressure cooker. Sauté the meat on all sides to get a light golden brown colour. |
Chop the garlic and onion by hand into small cubes and add to the cooker. With a spoon, turn the onion a few times until it get a shiny colour. |
Wash and chop the tomatoes into small cubes by hand… |
…and add to the cooker over the meat. Add the spices. Close the pressure cooker and simmer for 20′. |
Uncover the cooker and with a fork test if the meat has softened and is almost ready. Then add the beans and a glass of water and stir thoroughly to mix with the meat. Close the cooker and cook for another 10′ or until the food is ready. |
Finally add salt & pepper. It is recommended to cook this food in the pressure cooker, because the cooking time is reduced and the food is left intact by not having to stir often. |
