The bean and red cabbage cream is a comforting and healthy recipe, ideal for any time of year. This cream combines the smoothness of beans with the crunchy and slightly acidic touch of red cabbage, creating a dish full of flavor and nutrients. Originating from traditional Spanish cuisine, this cream has become a classic in many homes for its simplicity and versatility.
This recipe is perfect for those looking for a vegetarian and satisfying option, as beans provide vegetable protein and fiber, while vegetables like carrot, potato, and red pepper add essential vitamins and minerals. The touch of turmeric and fennel seeds gives it a unique aroma and color, making it special.
Moreover, it is an excellent way to incorporate red cabbage into your diet, even for those who are not fans of this vegetable, as its flavor softens when cooked with garlic and oil. It can be served as a light main dish or as a starter in a more elaborate meal.
There are variations of this cream: you can add a bit of cumin or paprika for a smoky touch, or even a splash of coconut milk to make it creamier. Go ahead and prepare it, and surprise your family with this delicious and nutritious cream!

We soak the beans the night before before we go to sleep 😴 The next day we drain and wash them. Take them in a saucepan and add enough water to cover them.
We bring the saucepan to the fire and raise the boil. When they will release foam, it must be removed.
Cut the carrot and red pepper in half (remove the seed and the white part) and add them together to the potatoes (whole... I use Canarian potatoes 🤤), the oregano, the oil, the bay leaves, a teaspoon of turmeric and the fennel seeds
Put the lid on the pan and let it cook over low heat for 1 hour and a half 2.. 🕚
While you pick up a pan, add a splash of oil and a clove of garlic. When it's hot, put 40 g of freshly washed and cut red cabbage... stir a little to get the flavor and add a glass of water...
