Basic ingredients

• 100g dried red beans (per person)
• 60g bacon (per person)
• 50g chorizo sausage (per person)
• 1 onion

• 1 carrot
• 1 leek
• olive oil
• salt

Steps:

1. Place the beans, diced bacon, chopped onion, carrot and leek and a few drops of olive oil into a saucepan season with salt

2. Cover with water and bring to the boil and then simmer for about an hour and a half before adding the chopped chorizo

3. Continue boiling until the beans are well cooked (this depends on the variety of red beans you are using) - this should be at least an hour and 40 mins

 

Tips and Ideas:

• Add more water if necessary in step 2 to prevent the beans from becoming dry or sticking to the bottom of the pan
