Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium cooking onion, chopped
4 large tomatoes, diced
3 large carrots, quartered and sliced into bite size
4 cups cooked red kidney beans (I soak my beans and boil them the day before in the same water that I soak them)
1/2 cup tomato sauce
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon whole cumin seed
salt and pepper
5 chopped garlic cloves
chopped cilantro or chopped parsley

Directions

1

Heat oil in a large pot and add the carrots and saute for about 6 min (add water if needed instead of using more oil).
2

Then add the onion and saute for a couple of minutes.
3

Next add all the ingredients in except the garlic and parsley and saute at high until it begins to boil, then reduce to low heat.
4

After reducing to lower heat add the garlic (the garlic flavour penetrates the ingredients much better this way) and simmer until the carrots are done.
5

Take of the heat and add the cilantro and serve with or over rice and a side salad.
