Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces sausages (pork or beef)
- 800 grams canned baked beans
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
Heat a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.
Cook the sausages for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until evenly browned and cooked through. Remove from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Add the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds, stirring frequently to avoid burning.
Stir in the tomato paste, smoked paprika, and Worcestershire sauce, cooking for 1 minute to release the flavors.
Pour in the canned baked beans, stirring well to combine. Season with salt and black pepper.
Slice the cooked sausages into thick pieces (or leave them whole if preferred) and add them to the pan with the beans.
Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer gently for 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Sprinkle with chopped parsley, if desired, before serving.
Serve hot with crusty bread, mashed potatoes, or a side salad for a complete meal.
