Borlotti Beans, Browned Onions + Sausages

The dish that prompted CRAVE: Ed Smith's cookbook full of recipes to suit your mood + appetite. And this hearty dish is all we're craving in the colder months.

This is perfect for the kind of day when hunkering down on the sofa (or bed) is pretty much the extent of what you want to do. Picture that scene, then imagine your kitchen being filled with the warm notes of buttery onions, beans and sage as they putter away on the stove. Then add the smell of sausages as they caramelise and colour in their own juices… It’s brown food. It’s nourishing. It’s food in which you’ll want to wallow.
