Fagioli alla maruzzara

Fagioli alla maruzzara is a traditional dish originating from Campania. It's usually made with a combination of white cannellini beans, tomatoes, celery, garlic, olive oil, parsley, ciabatta, oregano, salt, and pepper. The boiled beans are mixed with celery and sticks, and the mixture is simmered until both are very tender. The tomatoes are blanched, peeled, and chopped, then added to the pan with garlic, oil, oregano, and parsley. The mixture is seasoned with salt and pepper and cooked until the beans are mushy. The ciabatta is cut into slices, the slices are placed into soup plates, and the bean mixture (similar to a thick soup) is poured over the bread. The dish is typically garnished with chopped parsley before serving.
