Courgette & White Bean Summer Stew

Home   Recipes for Pulses, Grains, Seeds, Flakes, Flour, Ferments...   Courgette & White Bean Summer Stew
Beans Pulses Summer Supper White Coco Beans

by Amy Elysia July 22, 2025

This simple sweet, sour and herby bean dish uses white coco beans to make the most of abundant seasonal courgettes in a perfect dish for summer. It's delicious served hot or cold.

This dish is created by Amy Eylsia, who says:

"I made this dish on repeat last summer… partly due to a gut of courgettes in the garden, but it has everything I want from a summer dish - sweet onions, creamy beans in their cooking stock, all cut through with the acidity of plenty of vinegar and capers. You can use lemon juice in place of cider vinegar, but I love the sweetness of the cider vinegar.

"I like to serve this with a big dollop of yoghurt and some crusty bread to mop up the juices if I have it. Switch the mint and basil for any fresh summer herbs you like."

Serves 3 to 4

Ingredients

  • 300g White Coco Beans (soaked overnight)
  • 700ml Stock
  • 2 Onions, sliced
  • 3 Courgettes, cut into rounds
  • 3 Cloves of Garlic, sliced
  • 3 tbsp Capers, roughly chopped
  • 4 tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
  • Small Handful of Fresh Mint, roughly chopped
  • Small Handful of Basil, roughly chopped
  • Chive Flowers, to garlic (optional)
  • Yoghurt, to serve
  • Salt and Pepper, to taste

Method

  1. Cook the beans in stock, seasoned generously with salt until tender and set aside. Do not drain.
  2. Add a good glug of olive oil to a frying pan over medium to high heat. Add the courgette, onion and garlic, season and fry until the onion is golden and sweet and the courgette is soft.
  3. Add the capers and cook for a minute more, before adding the vinegar.
  4. Add the beans and their stock to the courgettes and onion mixture and heat through if serving hot.
  5. Sprinkle over the herbs and serve with a dollop of yoghurt.

Wholemeal Spelt Pie with Zesty Creamed Greens

January 12, 2026

This pie of creamy, zesty greens encased in a crisp spelt crust, more like a very thin bread than a pastry, is perfect sliced and served with salad. The filling makes use of leftover lemon rind, finely sliced, by cooking it down until mild and soft but still full of flavour.

Sweet Potato, Wheat Bran and Apple Tea Loaf

January 01, 2026

Wheat bran is a wonderful ingredient if you’re looking to increase your fibre consumption as it contains over 40g of fibre in 100g of bran. It works beautifully in cakes, especially in combination with wet ingredients like sweet potato and apple, because it absorbs a lot of water, making the final bake just the right level of moist. The mouthfeel of this tea loaf is not dissimilar to corn bread.
