Background

This Sausage & Black Eyed Bean Stew is just right for a quick but tasty and warming supper - particularly in the winter months. Black eyed beans (also called black-eye peas) are really healthy - lots of fibre, iron & potassium - and they're fun to look at, so kids love them. Served with mashed potatoes it's the perfect comfort food!

Ingredients

12 fresh Chipolatas (or 6 halved standard sausages)
1 Red Onion
1 or 2 cloves of Garlic
1 Tbsp vegetable oil
400g can Black Eyed Beans
400g can Tomatoes
1 handful of basil
1 tsp dried oregano

Instructions

Put a heavy-based casserole pan over a medium heat and add the oil.
Chop the onion & garlic and soften in the oil for a couple of minutes.
Add the sausages and cook for 5 minutes turning to brown all over. Stir in the dried oregano.
Add the beans & tomatoes. Turn up the heat and gently stir until it bubbles. Lower the heat, cover and leave for 6-7 minutes more.
Chop the basil and scatter over the stew.
Serve warm.

Tips

Other beans (or pulses) can be used as variations on this simple theme.
If you have the time and know how, then using dry beans is even healthier. I'll try to put up a post on how to prepare them soon.
