Equipment: Large pan or casserole with a lid

Ingredients

  • 12 pork sausages, at least 85% pork
  • 1 onion, sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 400 g tin of chopped tomatoes
  • 1 400 g tin of butter beans (lima beans), drained
  • 200 ml chicken or vegetable stock, from a cube
  • Salt and black pepper

Method

  1. Brown the sausages in a large pan for 8 minutes (they have enough fat of their own). Lift out and cut each in half.
  2. Soften the onion in the same pan for 5 minutes, then stir in the garlic and paprika for 1 minute.
  3. Add the tomatoes, beans, stock and sausages. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes, then uncover for 5 minutes to thicken. Season and serve.

Swaps and tips

Pick sausages with at least 85% pork for more protein and less filler. Gluten-free sausages make the whole dish gluten-free.

Easy variations

  • Use any tin of beans
  • Add a sliced pepper or a handful of spinach
  • Swap the paprika for dried mixed herbs
  • Use chipolatas and cook 5 minutes less
