Method

  1. Cook the onion in the oil over medium heat for 10 minutes until it is soft and pale gold, without letting it brown hard

  3. Add the tomato and let it cook down for 3 minutes

  4. Add the beans, carrots, salt and water

  5. Cover and cook 10 to 12 minutes, until the beans are tender but still green and still have a little bite

  6. Uncover and let the last of the liquid go. Serve warm or at room temperature

Photographs

From the kitchen

  • Stop while the beans are still green. Overcooked fosolia goes grey and loses the point of the dish

  • It is as good at room temperature as it is hot, which is why it earns its place on a beyaynetu tray

  • Some cooks add cubed potato in the last ten minutes to stretch it further

  • No berbere. Fosolia is a mild dish and its job on the tray is to sit next to the hot ones
