Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 onion
- 2 cloves of garlic
- 570 grams butter beans jar or tin (400g drained weight)
- 50 ml double cream
- 200 grams frozen peas
- 10 grams flat leaf parsley
- 225 grams chorizo
- 450 grams jar of roasted peppers
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
Instructions
- Peel and chop your onion into small pieces. Heat the oil in a medium saucepan and add the onion. Sauté over a medium heat for 5 minutes until starting to soften.
- Peel and chop the garlic cloves into small pieces, then add to the onion. Cook for a further 30 seconds.
- Add the beans and a dash of water. Turn the heat down to low and simmer gently for 15 minutes. Stir every now and then, making sure they don’t catch on the bottom.
- Meanwhile, slice your chorizo into 5mm rings. Add to a frying pan and put on a medium heat. Cook, turning often, until starting to turn golden (keep an eye on them - they burn easily).
- Drain the jar of peppers and cut them into 1 inch chunks. Add to the pan with the chorizo, then add your honey and balsamic vinegar. Stir until everything is well coated. Cook for another 2 minimum, then remove from the heat.
- Turn back to your beans. Add the cream, peas and chopped parsley, along with a pinch of salt and plenty of black pepper. Cook for another two minutes.
- To serve, ladle the beans into bowls and top with the chorizo and red peppers. Enjoy!
