Baked beans with anchovy

If you like baked beans, why don’t you try this interesting version, made with anchovy? If you like meat, you can add 50g pancetta or lardons to the recipe ( after the onion and garlic have softened). These baked beans with anchovy are perfect for breakfast/brunch or go really well with grilled meat and fish. I made it with pinto beans, but  you can use cannellini beans, black beans, haricot beans etc for this recipe.
