Her Majesty's Lima Beans and Potatoes Delight

This recipe is a simple yet nourishing delicacy, fit for royalty and commoners alike.

1. Begin by soaking one and a half cups of dried Lima beans in enough water to cover them overnight. Drain and rinse the beans the next morning.
2. In a pot, place the soaked beans and add enough water to cover them. Simmer over medium heat for 15 minutes, then add two diced potatoes to the pot.
3. Continue to simmer until the potatoes are tender and the beans are soft, about 10 to 15 minutes.
4. Drain the excess water from the pot and mash the beans and potatoes with a potato masher.
5. Add salt to taste, and a sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper.
6. Serve hot, as a side dish or a main meal. This dish pairs well with roast beef or a simple salad. Enjoy!
