Bean & Sausage Hotpot

Preparation

  1. Fry the sausages in a large casserole until browned all over, about 10 minutes.
  2. Pour in the tomato sauce and stir well, then stir in the beans, treacle and mustard.
  3. Bring to a simmer, cover and cook for 30 minutes.
  4. Good with crusty bread or rice.

Tips from the ZestyPlate Kitchen

  • Brown the sausages properly first. That colour translates into deeper, savoury flavour later.
  • The spoonful of treacle gives a real depth and takes the sharp edge off the tomato.
  • Keep the simmer gentle so the sausages stay juicy while the sauce thickens.
  • Stir the mustard in at the end and taste as you go; it lifts the whole pot.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Cannellini, haricot or even baked beans all stand in for the butter beans.

Easily. Swap in veggie sausages and it's every bit as hearty.

Crusty bread for mopping up the sauce, fluffy rice, or a pile of buttery mash.
