👨🍳 Οδηγίες
- 1
In a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven, heat the oil or lard over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and cook until softened and translucent, about 8-10 minutes.
- 2
Add the chopped carrots and parsnip to the pot and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- 3
Stir in the minced garlic, sweet paprika, and hot paprika (if using). Cook for 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn the paprika.

Add the tomato paste and cook for another minute, stirring to combine.
- 5
Add the drained soaked beans, smoked pork ribs, and bay leaves to the pot. Stir everything to coat.
- 6
Pour in enough water or vegetable broth to generously cover the ingredients. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer gently for at least 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the beans are very tender and the pork ribs are falling off the bone. Stir occasionally and add more liquid if needed to keep the beans submerged.

Season generously with salt and black pepper to taste. Remove the bay leaves before serving.

Serve hot, ensuring each portion gets a good amount of beans and ribs. It's often served with a side of crusty bread.
