Spicy Italian Beans
So simple and really tasty – perfect for a meat free lunch or weeknight meal for two. Great with our Tomato & Chilli Couscous or try with our new Mediterranean-inspired Tasty Grains.
Method
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a pan over a medium heat. Add the onions, garlic and chilli and cook for 4-6 minutes until softened. Stir in the tomato puree and cook for 1-2 minutes. Add the red peppers and beans and stir before adding the stock. Season well and simmer gently for 15-20 minutes until the sauce has thickened.
Meanwhile prepare the couscous according to the packet instructions.
Finish the beans with a handful of grated Parmesan cheese and serve with Ainsley Tomato & Chilli Couscous and a side salad.
