One-pan Spicy Sausages and Beans recipe by Jane Lovett

Sausage and beans by any other name, but so much nicer thanks to gentle spicing and heat from the harissa paste and a few other additions. A lovely, warming supper that is on the table in no time. I sometimes ring the changes by putting a slice of toasted sourdough in the bottom of individual bowls and spooning the sausage casserole over the top – hey presto, sausages and beans on toast!

Method

Based on 4 servings, adjust as needed.

Step 1

Heat a splash of olive oil in a sauté pan, add the sausages and cook on a medium-high heat until browned all over. Transfer to a plate.

Step 2

Add a little more oil to the pan if necessary, add the onion and cook on a low heat for around 10 minutes until soft. Add the harissa paste, mustard, oregano, sugar, stock pot, tinned tomatoes and drained haricot beans. Rinse the tomato tin out with a little water (about a quarter of a tinful to serve 4) and add this to the pan, along with some seasoning. Return the sausages to the pan, bring up to a simmer, check the seasoning, then bubble gently for 15 minutes, adding a little more water if necessary.

Step 3

Just before serving, add the spinach (if using), a handful at a time, allowing it to semi-wilt between each addition. Serve.
