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.
