Recipe adapted

Not really a new recipe, but a note for those interested.

A little while ago I posted a Beans in Brown Sugar recipe, which used soybeans,

brown

sugar, wakame. Around a week ago I was looking at some cooked black beans and

decided to do something with them - and seeing that recipe, did the following:

 

Chillied Black Beans and Molasses with Shredded Nori (Vegan)

 

2 Tbsp dried shredded nori, soaked and cut into small pieces

1 Tbsp (or as little as you can get away with) canola oil

1 Tbsp grated ginger

1 small carrot, grated

half a yellow onion, chopped

2 cups turtle beans/black beans, cooked and drained

2 Tbsp blackstrap molasses

1 tsp sea salt

1 green chilli, finely chopped (more if you like)

a little water as needed to simmer the above

1 tsp dark sesame oil to be added at the end of cooking

A couple of handfuls of chopped coriander leaves/cilantro to heap on the beans

to serve

 

The method remained the same, sauteeing the vegetables, adding the beans,

stirring, blah

blah blah, simmering until blended and a mass of lovely beans.

 

It tasted of course *totally* different to the previous recipe - yet little was

changed except

to add more ginger, change the beans, use a different sweetener, etc. I made a

note of

what I'd changed because this is the way we're going to do them from now on :-)

Lovely.

 

Just a note, that's all.
