Gigantes plaki

Picture
Ingredients for 6 people :

  • 700g gigantes beans (lima beans)
  • 235g carrots sliced
  • 170g onion shredded
  • 400g tomato sauce
  • 100ml olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 1450ml water
Let's start...the night before :)  Soak the beans overnight in plenty of water.  
The next day put the beans in a big pot and add plenty of water to cover them.  Bring the beans to a boil and keep boiling for five minutes.  Drain them and place them in the pressure cooker.  Add all the other ingredients including the measured water.  Close the pressure cooker and place on the stove.  Cook for 35 minutes in the pressure cooker.  After that, take a large enough oven dish and place the beans in it.  You want them to be spread out.  Place them in the preheated to 180 degrees Celsius oven for 35 minutes.  Once they are cooked, remove from the oven and serve warm with olives!  Enjoy!
