Directions
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.
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.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
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.
Scoop the mixture from the pan onto your serving plate. Serve with some warm, crusty bread or a fresh salad leaves.
