Filling and super-healthy! A traditional Greek Gigantes beans recipe (gigantes plaki), made of 'giant' beans baked in a tomato sauce with plenty of fresh herbs, for a unique taste!

Provided by Eli K. Giannopoulos

Categories     Main

Time 2h20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

500g gigantes beans (17 ounces)
1/2 cup olive oil
1 small clove of garlic
1 large onion, finely chopped
4-5 tbsps parsley, finely chopped
1/2 tbsp celery, finely chopped
1/2 cup of hot water
400g (14 ounces) tinned chopped tomatoes or 600g (21 ounces) ripped fresh tomatoes, grated
1 tsp dried oregano
salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Steps:

  • To prepare the gigantes (Gigsntes) plaki, start by soaking the gigantes beans overnight into plenty of water. Drain them into a colander and rinse with plenty of water.
  • Place the gigantes in a large pan with cold water, enough to cover them, add a pinch of sea salt and bring to a boil. Turn the heat down and simmer for 45 minutes, until tender but not cooked. Drain them in a colander and set aside.
  • In the meantime, pour into a large baking pan the olive oil, add the chopped onions, the whole garlic clove (peeled) and bake at 180C, until softened and slightly colored (approx. 15 minutes).
  • Turn the baking pan out of the oven. Add the gigantes beans (drained), the celery, the parsley, ½ cup of hot water and season with salt and pepper. Put back in the oven and bake for 30 minutes.
  • Turn the baking tray out of the oven, blend the gigantes beans lightly with a wooden spoon and pour in the grated tomatoes or plum tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper, add a pinch of oregano and bake the gigantes plaki further for 50-60 minutes at 180C, until the beans are soft and tender and the sauce thickens.
  • For an easier alternative, after soaking the gigantes beans overnight, drain and rinse them. Place in a large pan with enough water to cover them and bring to the boil. Boil for 5 minutes, drain them and place into a large baking pan, along with all of the ingredients, cover with some aluminum foil and bake at 180C for approx. 2 hours. The last 30 minutes, bake without the aluminium foil. Enjoy!

Provided by The Hungry Bites

Categories     Dinner     Main Course

Time 2h15m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound (450 grams) dried giant beans (Gigantes)
1/4 cup olive oil
1 onion, finely chopped or grated
1 carrot, finely chopped
3 cups pureed tomatoes
1 cup chopped parsley or celery
1 1/2 teaspoons fine salt
Freshly grounded black pepper
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
1 teaspoon dried oregano or thyme
2 cups water or vegetable stock

Steps:

  • Soak the beans in a large bowl with plenty of water for at least 12 hours (24 hours will work best).Rinse them well and transfer them in large pot. Fill with enough water to cover them by at least 2 inches and bring to a simmer. Skim any foam from the surface and cook until tender (about 1 hour). Remove from the heat.
  • Preheat your oven to 390°F (200°C).Drain half of the water from the pot and refill with fresh water (this will cool the beans and will help them not to peel-off when drained). Stir gently and let them sit until you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
  • Drain the beans and transfer them to a large casserole dish or baking pan. Add the rest of the ingredients except the water and stir gently to mix. Add enough water to just cover them.
  • Bake for about 60 minutes or until almost all of the liquids have evaporated.
  • Serve with bread and olives. Eat!

GIGANTES (GREEK GIANT BAKED BEANS)



Gigantes (Greek Giant Baked Beans) image

Butter Beans are most similar to our 'gigantes' (giants). If any of you have access to an ethnic Greek grocery, go and get the real thing - you'll love them!

Provided by evelynathens

Categories     Beans

Time 2h30m

Yield 8-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 lb dried butter beans (soaked overnight) or 1 lb dried lima beans (soaked overnight)
1 large onion, chopped (about 1 1/2 cups)
1 (16 ounce) can diced tomatoes with juice (concasse)
1 yellow bell pepper, chopped into 1/2 inch pieces
1 red bell pepper, chopped into 1/2 inch pieces
4 -5 garlic cloves, minced
3 large carrots, chopped into 1/2 inch pieces
2 stalks celery & leaves, chopped into 1/2 inch pieces
3/4 cup olive oil
1/2 lb bacon, chopped (or 6 oz. bacon and 6 oz good quality pork sausage, cut up) (optional)
1/2 teaspoon pepper
2 vegetable bouillon cubes
2 tablespoons ketchup
2 tablespoons fresh dill, minced
enough hot water, to cover beans by 1 inch

Steps:

  • Cook the pre-soaked beans in a pressure cooker, with enough water to cover by one inch, for 20 minutes and allow to sit, undisturbed, for 2-3 hours before proceeding with recipe.
  • Tip the beans into a large baking pan.
  • Add all of the remaining ingredients, except the dill, and stir well to distribute.
  • Pour over enough hot water to cover beans by 1".
  • Place pan in oven and set oven to 400°F.
  • Bake for 2 hours. Check, if you like your beans more tender, cook them a half hour longer.
  • Stir dill in for last 15 minutes of baking.
  • There will still be plenty of juices in the pan, but these will be absorbed by the beans and thicken as the beans cool.
  • Like nearly all bean recipes, these only improve the next day, and the day after next.
  • In Greece, these beans would constitute the main, 'vegetarian' meal and would not include the bacon, which is my own addition. We often eat meatless, especially when we're fasting. With or without the bacon or sausage, this is good eating, especially with a big chunk of sharp feta cheese on the side to nibble on between bites of beans and slurps of sauce and some good, honest, crusty bread to clean your plate up with. :-).

GIGANTES (GREEK LIMA BEANS)



Gigantes (Greek Lima Beans) image

This is a family recipe. In Greek, it's called 'Gigantes' which translates as 'Giants.' Try to find the largest dried lima beans possible. My aunt adds small canned sausages, but I prefer this meatless. Serve with feta cheese and a crusty bread. You can also substitute 2 teaspoons parsley for the dill if you prefer.

Yield Makes 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound dried gigante beans, dried lima beans, or dried Great Northern beans
1/4 cup olive oil
3 cups chopped onions (about 2 medium)
3 garlic cloves, minced
8 cups (or more) low-salt chicken broth
1 28-ounce can whole plum tomatoes in juice (preferably San Marzano), tomatoes chopped, juice reserved
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1/4 cup ouzo (Greek anise-flavored liqueur)
1 tablespoon dried oregano (preferably Greek)
1 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper
1 cup chopped fresh dill
Ingredient info: Dried gigante beans are large cream-colored beans from the mediterranean. They're available at some specialty foods stores and online at titanfood.com. Ouzo is available at some liquor stores.

Steps:

  • Place beans in large bowl. Pour enough water over to cover beans by 3 inches; let soak overnight. Drain beans; set aside.
  • Heat olive oil in heavy large pot over medium-high heat. Add chopped onions and garlic and sauté until onions are golden brown, 6 to 7 minutes. Add beans, 8 cups chicken broth, tomatoes with juice, vinegar, ouzo, oregano, and crushed red pepper to pot; bring to boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer until beans are tender, adding more broth by cupfuls to keep beans submerged and stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 hours, depending on freshness of beans. If necessary, uncover and cook beans until tomato mixture thickens and liquid is slightly reduced, 10 to 15 minutes. Season beans to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper. DO AHEAD: beans can be made up to 1 day ahead. Cool slightly. Chill uncovered until cold, then cover and keep chilled. Rewarm beans before continuing, adding more chicken broth by 1/2 cupfuls if beans are dry.
  • Stir chopped fresh dill into beans. Serve with octopus .
