Time 4h15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

375 g dried roman beans or 375 g dried red kidney beans, soaked
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, diced
3 garlic cloves, chopped
2 carrots, diced
2 slices bacon, cut into 1cm wide strips (thick, streaky)
2 red peppers, cut into 2cm squares
1 green pepper, cut into 2cm squares
1 (400 g) can peeled tomatoes, don't drain
1 bay leaf
1 sprig thyme
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon crushed coriander seed
salt
fresh ground black pepper
3 tablespoons golden syrup or 3 tablespoons honey

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 160⁰C.
  • Rinse soaked beans, then put into saucepan & cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, then strain & rinse with cold water.
  • Heat oil in a large enamelled cast-iron casserole & sauté onion, garlic, carrot & bacon. After 5 minutes, when onion has softened & bacon is sizzling, add red & green peppers.
  • Puree tomatoes & juice in a food processor & add to casserole with beans & remaining ingredients, except maple syrup. Mix well. Add sufficient cold water to cover beans by 4 cm.
  • Transfer casserole, tightly sealed, into oven & bake for at least 4 hours. Stir well after 2 hours, checking that it is still reasonably sloppy (if too dry, add a little water & reduce oven temp).
  • After 4 hours, stir in maple syrup, extra salt & plenty of freshly ground pepper.
  • The beans should now be in a rich sauce. If too thick, add a little water; if too runny & the beans are tender, increase oven temp & continue to cook.

These beans are a great make-ahead meal. I usually make them on the weekend and then reheat them during the week.

I made these beans in my slow cooker and they were perfect! I just threw all the ingredients in the pot and let it cook on low for 8 hours.

I'm a vegetarian, so I made these beans with veggie bacon. They turned out great!

These beans are a great way to use up leftover ham. I also like to add a bit of chopped onion and celery for extra flavor.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my beans turned out really mushy. I think I might have cooked them for too long.

I found these beans to be a bit bland. I think they could have used more seasoning.

These beans are a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a matter of personal preference.

I'm not a big fan of baked beans, but these were actually really good. The molasses and brown sugar give them a great flavor.

I've made these beans several times and they always turn out perfect. The key is to use good quality ingredients and to not skimp on the bacon.
