Bean & Sausage Hotpot

Instructions

1. 1

   Brown the Sausages

   38 min

   In a large casserole dish, heat over medium flame and add 8 large sausages. Cook them until they develop a rich, golden-brown color on all sides, which should take approximately 10 minutes. Make sure to turn them occasionally for even browning and to ensure they cook through evenly.

2. 2

   Add Tomato Sauce

   5 min

   Once the sausages are nicely browned, pour in 1 jar of tomato sauce. Use a spatula to stir the sauce thoroughly, ensuring that the sausages are well coated and the flavors start to meld together, creating a savory base for the hotpot.

3. 3

   Mix in Beans and Flavorings

   5 min

   Next, add 1200g of butter beans, followed by 1 tablespoon of black treacle and 1 teaspoon of English mustard. Stir all the ingredients together until well combined; the treacle will add a hint of sweetness to balance the flavors, while the mustard provides a subtle kick.

4. 4

   Simmer the Hotpot

   1 min

   Bring the entire mixture to a gentle simmer. Once it reaches this point, cover the casserole with a lid and let it cook for 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to deepen and the beans to warm through. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
