Sausage and Bean Stew recipe
information
A favourite with children, and a warming dish for a winter day. Cider is used for extra flavour, and for a hint of spiciness, add 15 ml (1 tbsp) chilli seasoning. Substitute with dried kidney beans, if liked, using 225 g (8 oz) dried beans, cooked before adding to the stew.
ingredients
method
1. Heat the oil and butter in a large flameproof casserole and fry the sausages for about 5 minutes, until browned. Cut each sausage in half crossways.
2. Add the onions to the casserole and fry for 5 minutes, until golden brown. Drain off any excess fat. Return the sausages to the casserole together with the beans, tomatoes and their juice, tomato puree, cider and salt and pepper to taste.
3. Cover and cook gently for about 15 minutes or until the sausages are tender. Accompany with crusty bread, boiled rice or mashed potatoes.
