Weigh canned white beans, drained, tomato, yellow onion, sweet paprika, olive oil, kosher salt, bay leaf. White bean fasule is cooked in Albania as its own dish. Simmer the beans in tomato and paprika until the sauce is thick. Amounts are scaled for four from foods this library can count, so the nutrition panel comes from those ingredients.

If it goes wrong
Shot. Split screen is unnecessary. Show the finished, correct texture, then a hand points at the cue.

White bean fasule turned out salty, dry, or watery. Weigh the salt and the liquid next time. Keep the heat at the temperature in the method, and stop when the doneness cue appears.

Machine-readable script for a later video tool. Scene durations are edit lengths, not cooking times. Long simmers and bakes are jump cuts. Order: hook, title, mise, equipment, one scene per numbered step (shot, on-screen text, voiceover, duration), doneness, fixes, storage, nutrition, plate, and the closing CTA. Keep the shot list and on-screen facts tied to this recipe.
