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 and served on white rice. The dish was developed by Sephardic Jews in the old city of Jerusalem and was later adopted by other Jewish sects. It is today served in houses and restaurants in Jerusalem as a side dish as part of the regional cuisine of Jerusalem. Modern variations include adding meat (beef, lamb, chicken) and fried onions.
