- 1
Drain and rinse the soaked beans. In a large pot, heat the cooking oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautรฉing until the onion is translucent and fragrant, about 5-7 minutes.
- 2
Stir in the chopped tomatoes, curry powder, turmeric, and chili powder (if using). Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes break down and form a paste-like consistency.
- 3
Add the drained beans, cassava pieces, salt, and black pepper to the pot. Stir well to combine with the tomato mixture.
- 4
Pour in enough water or vegetable broth to cover the beans and cassava. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until both the beans and cassava are tender. Stir occasionally and add more liquid if needed to prevent sticking.

Once tender, taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Let the stew rest for a few minutes before serving.

- โSoaking beans overnight significantly reduces cooking time and improves digestibility.
- โIf using pre-cooked or canned beans, add them in the last 30 minutes of cooking.
- โCassava can be substituted with sweet potatoes or yams.
- โServe hot as a main course or as a side dish with other Ugandan staples like posho or chapati.
