1 x 500g pack of red beans
2 large smoked pork sausages
Rice
Onions
Olive Oil
Bell pepper
Clove of garlic
Celery
Litre of water
1/2 tbls cayenne pepper (adjust to taste)
1 tbls parsley
1 1/2 litre of water
Preparation time: Approx. 20 minutes.
Cooking time: Approx. 60 minutes.
Remove the red beans from the packet and rinse them in a sieve under running water to remove any grit and sand that may be present.
Add the olive oil to a medium sized pan, and coarsely chop the onions, bell peppers and celery and to soften them on a very low heat for a few minutes.
Add the water slowly to the pan, and add the cayenne pepper, parsley and crushed garlic.
Once you have added the ingredients, turn up the heat and bring the water to a rolling boil and add the washed red beans to the pan with the other ingredients. Stir gently, and cover the pan with a lid and reduce the heat to a gentle simmer.
Keep a close eye on the pan, and stir once every 15 minutes or so. You should add water as required to prevent the food from sticking to the pan while making sure that the consistency of your beans are to your liking.
While the beans are cooking, place the sausages into an oven and roast them until they are golden brown. Remove them from the oven and allow to cool for 2-3 minutes before chopping them into inch-long pieces.
Place the sausage pieces into the pan with the beans, stir, and cook on a simmer for another 10 minutes ensuring that the water in the pan does not dry out.
You can serve your spicy bean salad with brown or white steamed rice and optionally garnish with finely sliced red onions, lettuce and capers.
