Preparation -- 40 minutes + soaking time

Tip: if you're using dried beans, you have to soak them overnight. 

Skip this step when using dried beans: ADD the dried beans to a medium-sized bowl, cover with water and cling film. SOAK the beans preferably overnight. Cook the beans in a large pan filled with water for 30 minutes, or until they softened enough.

PEEL and finely chop the garlic cloves and red onion. REMOVE the seeds of the bell peppers and cut them into large pieces. Finely CHOP the Lombok chilies with or without the seeds, depending how spicy you like your dish to be.
