Bean, potato and sausage stew
This is a comforting and flexible one-pot stew. It can be cooked in advance then re-heated – in fact it even benefits from being left to mature for couple of hours. Adjust the quantities of potatoes, beans and sausages to your liking, or add in any other veg you have to hand.
Ingredients
- 1 medium onion, sliced
- olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- 300g spicy sausage e.g. cooking chorizo, cut into thick slices
- 2 tsp paprika (smoked if possible)
- 1 bay leaf
- 150ml stock
- 250g runner beans, sliced
- 500g potatoes, peeled and diced
- glass sherry or red wine (optional)
- handful parsley or coriander, roughly chopped
- salt and pepper
