Method

  • step 1

    Heat a large non-stick frying pan, then brown the sausages for 3-5 mins over a high heat. Drain the beans, then add to the pan with the chopped tomatoes, herbs and sugar. Season well and bring to the boil. Simmer for 10 mins until the sausages are cooked through and the sauce has thickened, coating the beans.

RECIPE TIPS
ADDING SUGAR

Adding a little sugar to a tomato-based sauce brings out the natural sweetness of the tomatoes. It’s also a great way to perk up under-ripe fresh tomatoes.

IF YOU WANT TO USE A SLOW COOKER

Brown your sausages in a non-stick frying pan over a high heat for 3-5 minutes. Transfer them to the slow cooker pot with the beans. Add one can of tomatoes, then just the chopped tomatoes from the other can- sieve away the juice. Stir in your herbs and sugar with some seasoning, then cover and cook on Low overnight or for up to 8 hours.

Would this work in a slow cooker and if so for how long and what setting please?

Great dish, I added all the suggested spices, halved brussels sprouts, zucchini, and finally large fresh spinach leaves. It was so good the next day.

This is delicious when you add a few adjustments. I added 200ml of beef stock, 1/2tsp of chilli powder, turmeric and paprika. Good glug of Soy sauce and worcester sauce and boiled potatoes and carrots - included them in the sauce too. It was absolutely delicious, and something I will definitely be…

Made to recipe but sauce tasted thin. Added a good glug of soy sauce to bring some richness which worked a treat. Next time will try using a stock cube, and/or adding some paprika or chilli powder.

Great recipe! Made this last night and it was so quick and tasty. I added a dash of paprika to the sauce, then served it with roast new potatoes and mixed vegetables
