Orez Shu'it (Hebrew: אורז שעועית) (Ladino: Avas kon arroz or Avikas kon arroz) is an Israeli dish consisting of white beans cooked in a tomato paste, served on white rice.[1] The dish was developed by Sephardic Jews in the old city of Jerusalem and was later adopted by other Jewish groups. It is today served in homes and restaurants as a side dish and is considered part of the regional cuisine of Jerusalem. Modern variations include adding meat (beef, lamb, chicken) and fried onions.
