Albanian Stewed Green Beans and Potatoes With Smokey Seitan

In the heart of the Mediterranean, on the Adriatic and Ionian Seas, Albania is fast becoming one of the world’s most interesting getaways. Still relatively unspoiled by globalization, an inspiring mixture of civilizations and cultures – making this European country truly unique. This Stewed Green Bean recipe is a great flavorful way to use green beans! The recipe makes enough for two hungry people, so if you have more people at home double the recipe. The recipe uses three tablespoons of olive oil so if you want to make this lower fat feel free to reduce some of the oil. You can replace the seitan with storebought “beef” or “chicken” chunks, or even veggie crumbles. Taken directly from the Vegan Foodie.

Algerian Stew With White Beans – Barboucha

The first time I had this stew was in a remote town in Morocco. The smell of the spices, bursting through the steam caught my attention, then, the flavours melted in my mouth. Serve with couscous or bread.

Algerian Chicken Stew

This recipe is from “Extending the Table” and is meant to be eaten with couscous. If you prefer, substitute goat or lamb for the chicken.

Dovi (Zimbabwe Chicken Stew

I was looking for a recipe to round out my A to Z cookbook and this sounded good. From a website for missionaries to Africa. This was pretty good. It would also be good with some beans added, or served over some brown rice.
