Pure Mountain Lupin Bean Stew with Chapatis

1. Soak the lupin beans. It’s important to soak the beans before boiling for at least 18 hours/overnight. Remove discolored beans and rinse them thoroughly. Place them in a glass bowl and fill it with water. Ensure they are submerged in the water, then place the bowl at room temperature on your kitchen counter.

2. Drain and rinse the lupin beans before boiling. You’ll notice they’re plump and have a yellowish hue. Place in a pot and cover with water, then boil for 45 minutes on a stove. You may use a pressure cooker if you have one. Once boiled remove from heat and rinse with cold water. Fry onions, garlic, and ginger until soft and lightly brown.

3. To make the stew, Sauté onions, garlic, and ginger in a medium pot until it lightly browns.
