Made with:
Queen Red Beans

These are the most delicious red beans you will ever meet. They are the creamiest, biggest variety of a red kidney bean out there.

Directions

step 1
Heat the oil in a pan over a medium heat. Once hot, add the onions and cook for 8-10 minutes until softened, then add the garlic and tomato puree and fry off for a further 2 minutes.
step 2
Add the chopped tomatoes, beans with their bean stock and oregano to the pan. Stir to combine and bubble away for 3-4 minutes to let the mixture thicken slightly. Then add the cavolo nero and cook for 2-3 minutes until wilted. Season to taste.
step 3
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
step 4
Tip the mixture into a shallow roasting dish or large, oven-proof bowl. Roughly tear over the mozzarella to evenly cover the mixture, dollop over the ‘nduja and cover the top with breadcrumbs. Grill for 1-2 minutes or until the breadcrumbs are golden and the mozzarella is oozing. Remove from the grill and drizzle over the hot honey, or regular honey with a pinch of chilli flakes, if using.
step 5
Scoop the mixture from the pan onto your serving plate. Serve with some warm, crusty bread or a fresh salad leaves.

Tender Queen Red Beans

These are THE MOST DELICIOUS red beans you will ever meet. They are the creamiest, biggest variety of a red kidney bean out there. Their deeply savoury and meatiness make them the key component for a red wine ragu or scattered in a roasted kale + feta salad where their burgundy colour can be appreciated in its full glory. Even better still, try them straight from the jar.
