Cypriot Barbunya Salata - Red Bean Salad
"Growing up with parents that know how to cultivate food from land, with village-roots and a connection to soil, it’s easy to see other people’s mezzes as our main dishes.Barbunya salata - or red bean salad, is an easy, nutritious, traditionally-rooted meal, inspired by my Cypriot roots. The salad itself is creamy with tribute to quality beans, fresh, and of course juicy! Because the salad juice is essential for dipping crusty bread to mop up those juices" - AdyanAydan is the creator behind @stories.of.cypriot.food- check out more of her delicious recipes here.
