If you like baked beans, you’re going to love these harissa baked feta and beans.
These beans are sweet, slightly spicy and salty from that delicious feta – a true taste sensation. I love to serve them with a big slice of crusty bread to mop up all of that wonderful juice.
These beans are hearty enough to serve as a meal on their own, but you could – of course – eat them with any meal you would normally serve baked beans with. They’re beautiful on a full English breakfast!
They also happen to be really easy to make. If you’ve never made homemade baked beans before, give these ones a try.
Harissa Baked Feta and Beans – The Ingredients
- Onion – you could also add a couple of cloves of garlic.
- Harissa – get a simple jar of harissa and keep it in the fridge, it adds so much flavour to dishes like this.
- Butter beans – I use queen butter beans in water. You can use ordinary butter beans, too. Use a tin or jar for ease – if you use dried beans, you will need to soak and precook before using in this recipe.
- Oregano, smoked paprika, honey – these add gentle layers of flavour to the beans. You can leave out the honey if you would prefer a sharper dish.
- Passata – use passata rather than chopped tomatoes, it will give you a smoother sauce.
- Chickpeas – optional, but they bring a really nice textural difference.
- Feta– for that delicious salty creaminess.
