Guiso de porotos / Mixed bean stew

The carnivore recipe goes with sausages. I am mixing 2 different recipes that I know from Chile,
because one of the recipe goes with pumpkin (also sausages and sometimes noodles), and the other one goes with corn, 2 different kind of beans, but because they're all mixed here....and I would love someone telling me that I can't do that :) cause I am sooooooooooo staburn...(staburn = porfiado para los que me conocen).




Ingredients:
- beans
- pumpkin (diced)
- corn
- onion (chopped)
- garlic (minced)
- carrot (grated)  
- leek (chopped)
- the spices you prefer

Preparation:
- put the previously soaked (overnight) beans on a pot with water
- on pan, stir fry the onion, leek, garlic and carrot
- when the beans are half-cooked (it takes them like 20 min), add the pumpkin and corn
- when the beans and pumpkin are cooked add the veggies 
- Serve with cilantro on top if you have some
:)
