Smoky Sausage Casserole with Chorizo, Peppers and Beans
Introduction from Rukmini Iyer
If you remember having tinned spaghetti hoops with sausages when you were a child and haven’t had them since, you are in for a treat. This recipe for homemade baked beans with sausages – packed with herbs, peppers and chorizo – can disguise itself under the name of a smoky sausage casserole, but it’s still unmistakably nostalgic children’s food, and all the better for it.
Ingredients
Method
Preheat the oven to 200°C fan/220°C/gas 7.
Tip the peppers, onion, sausages, chorizo, rosemary, bay leaves, olive oil, sea salt and a good grind of pepper into a roasting tin large enough to hold everything in one layer – use the biggest tin you have.
Mix well, then transfer to the oven and roast for 25 minutes, until the sausages are just starting to brown.
Stir in the haricot beans, chopped tomatoes and boiling water, then return to the oven for a further 20–25 minutes. If you’ve used a nice big roasting tin, the sauce will have reduced and the sausages will have browned off nicely – you may need to cook it for a further 10 minutes in a smaller roasting tin to reduce the tomato sauce.
Serve with good crusty bread. This tastes even better the next day, and freezes very well.
