Baked Beans
Time: 30 min Yields: serves (with bread) Cost: $2.64 per serve Difficulty: 2/10
I lied - there is no oven. Called dad before cooking to ask how to imitate his baked beans, happy with the result. Very tasty over crumbly toast with lots of butter.
Ingredients
- Brown onions 1.5 whole (or 2 medium ones)
- Bacon (short cut) 150 grams (rashers, 5 rashers)
- Garlic 3 cloves
- Tomato paste 0.5 cups
- Cannellini beans 800 grams (2 cans)
- Chicken stock 0.5 cups
Steps
- Dice onion and bacon into small pieces, 8mm. Slice garlic thinly. Drain liquid from beans.
- In a large pot on medium-high heat, fry onion and bacon in oil for a few minutes until edges are browned, 5 minutes.
- Add garlic and tomato paste, fry for a minute or two.
- Add beans and stock, balance with salt and pepper. Cook for 7 minutes or so until dry and sauce clings to beans. Now is a good time to put some bread in the toaster.
