Herby Martinican Grilled Beans Casserole

Assemble the ingredients: beans, chili, lemon juice, bay leaf, yogurt, flour, salt.

Warm oil in a heavy pot. Add the beans and cook until grilled.

Stir in the aromatics and spices — the backbone of Martinican flavors.

Add the remaining ingredients and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until tender.

Taste and adjust seasoning; the flavor should deepen as it cooks.

Plate and serve with traditional Martinican accompaniments such as bread, rice, or fresh herbs.
