Sausage & butter bean simmer-and-serve
Butter beans tend to be underused in recipes, but they soak up the flavour of what they're cooked in really well, including this braise.
Serves 4
Prep 5 mins
Cook 50 mins
FREEZABLE
1 tbsp sunflower oil
16 chipolatas (I used spicy chorizo ones because I love the chilli heat)
2 onions, sliced
2 celery sticks, sliced
8 garlic cloves, sliced
1 rosemary sprig
600ml chicken stock
2 x 400g cans butter beans, drained
75g butter, cubed small pack parsley, leaves picked and chopped
2 lemons, zested crusty bread, to serve
1 Gently heat the oil in a large pan. Fry the sausages all over until brown, then remove and set aside. Add the onion to the pan and fry for 5-10 mins until golden and soft, then add the celery, garlic and rosemary, and cook for 2 mins more. Pour over the stock and bring to the boil.
2 Reduce the heat and simmer for 20 mins, then add the sausages back to the pan along with the butter beans. Simmer for 8 mins, then stir in the butter, parsley and lemon zest. Ladle into bowls and serve piping hot with lots of bread.

Thai-style shellfish pot
Thai flavours go well with all fish and seafood, so you can use your favourites in this dish. I've made my own Thai curry paste here, but a ready-made red curry paste would also be fine.
