Fijones, or as is known in Turkey, Piyaz, is a refreshing, healthy black-eyed bean salad garnished with hard-boiled eggs, olives, red onions and fragrant fresh herbs.
While the beans are still hot they are doused in a tangy lemon and olive oil dressing, aromatic with garlic and cumin.
This protein packed wholesome salad is best made ahead so that the flavors have time to meld with the delicious dressing before serving.
Salata de fijones traditionally appears at the Sephardic Rosh Hashanah table as these beans symbolize abundance for the New Year.
