Soak the samp and dried beans in separate bowls of water for 8 hours.

Cook with the bay leaf for 80 minutes, until the grains and beans are tender.
In a separate pan, saute the onion, carrots and garlic in olive oil for 8 minutes.
Add the ground red pepper and salt, then transfer the mixture to the pot.
Cook the dish for 20 more minutes over low heat until it turns creamy.
Remove the bay leaf and serve hot.
💡 Tip: Samp absorbs liquid very quickly; add hot water little by little during cooking if needed.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve Samp and Beans as a main dish with chakalaka, green salad or grilled vegetables.
