Easy sausage and bean casserole
January 21st, 2009
I had a “late in from work / feel ill / cannot be arsed to cook” evening tonight, combined with an unwelcome bareness in my kitchen cupboards.
So: coarsely chop red onions, sautee in a ovenproof pot over a low heat. When softened, add some garlic (lazy garlic in jar for me), stir, and add a pack of sausages; preferably some robustly flavoured ones. Fry for ten minutes or so to cook the sausages. Add a tin of baked beans (yes, baked beans, I like baked beans), some tomato ketchup, and random dollops of stuff from your sauce cupboard (tonight that was Reggae Reggae sauce and tobasco). Put in oven for 45 min or so. Meanwhile, peel potatoes, boil until soft, mash with plenty of butter, some cream, English mustard powder, and Dijon mustard.
Done!
I think this would work better wrapped in a bacon weave.
Man, you need to boost your bean knowledge. There is a whole world of pinto, adzuki and borlotti out there! Yes, they come in tins too.
@Emanuel Crisp whilst it is true that my pulse fu is weak, I draw the honerable gentleman’s attention to “an unwelcome bareness in my kitchen cupboards”. And also “I like baked beans”. So what. Big whoop. Wanna fight about it?
@Toby yes, but what wouldn’t?
@rich
I think you should have a fight using canned pulses as weapons.
Then I can watch eating bacon weaves.
