The Ultimate Vegan Protein: Authentic Georgian LOBIO

Описание: LOBIO is essentially a hearty, thick bean soup. While it’s not difficult to make, it does require a bit more time than some of my other recipes. Of course, there are specific culinary secrets to getting it just right, and I’ll share all of them with you in this video.

In Georgia, Lobio is a staple dish that we cook very often. It’s especially popular during Lent, as it is a completely plant-based, vegetarian dish. It pairs perfectly with pickles—like our Gurian Pickled Cabbage—and traditional corn cakes called MCHADI.

📝 Ingredients for LOBIO:
0.5 kg Red Kidney Beans
2 Onions
100 g Fresh Cilantro (bunch)
2-3 Garlic cloves
1 Hot Green or Red Chili pepper
2 tsp Ground Coriander (dried cilantro seeds)
2 tsp Utskho-Suneli (Blue Fenugreek)
½ tsp Kondari (Summer Savory)
1 Bay leaf
2 tsp Salt
Optional: 20 g Butter (add to the plate when serving)

💡 Pro-Tip for Serving:
To enjoy Lobio like a true Georgian, serve it piping hot in a clay pot with a side of Mchadi and some spicy pickles.
