Egyptian Edamame Stew
I got this recipe from eatingwell.com. I usually double the recipe and freeze the leftovers.
Egyptian Edamame Stew
4 servings (approx 2 cups per serving)
Ingredients
1 1/2 10-ounce packages frozen shelled edamame, (about 3 cups), thawed
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
1 large zucchini, diced
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste
1 28-ounce can diced tomatoes
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, or mint **I omit this ingredient
3 tablespoons lemon juice
Directions
1. Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Add edamame and cook until tender, 4 to 5 minutes or according to package directions. Drain.
2. Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until starting to soften, about 3 minutes. Add zucchini and cook, covered, until the onions are starting to brown, about 3 minutes more. Add garlic, cumin, coriander and cayenne and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in tomatoes and bring to a boil; reduce heat to a simmer and cook until slightly reduced, about 5 minutes.
3. Stir in the edamame and cook until heated through, about 2 minutes more. Remove from the heat and stir in cilantro (or mint) and lemon juice.

Oh my gosh, this sounds so good.
What do you usually serve it with? Flatbread, a salad?0 -
I find it filling enough to eat on its own or sometimes I'll serve it over rice, couscous or quinoa so that I have something to soak up all of the juices. It would be good with a flat bread or salad as well.0
