Harissa Prawn, Tomato + Feta Beanotto™

A beanotto is our take on risotto, swapping rice for silky, creamy white beans. It’s quicker, higher in fibre and protein, but still gloriously rich and indulgent. This one leans Greek-style - juicy prawns simmer in a tomatoey sauce with oregano, chilli + paprika, a kick of harissa, then finished with salty, melty feta for full saganaki vibes. Mega comforting, one-pan, and perfect with warm bread or straight from the bowl. And if you're veggie? Simply omit the prawns.

Directions

1

Heat two tablespoons of olive oil in a large sautée pan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 8–10 minutes until soft and golden.

2

Stir in the garlic, fennel seeds, paprika and chilli flakes. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant and the seeds are sizzling.

3

Add the chopped tomatoes with a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then lower to a gentle simmer and cook for 7-8 minutes until the sauce has thickened slightly. Taste and season, adding a pinch of sugar or honey if the tomatoes are a little sharp.

4

Add the beans with their bean stock and the harissa. Give everything a stir and simmer over a low heat to warm the beans through, until they look creamy and glossy, resembling a similar consistency to a risotto - about 5 minutes. Add a splash of water or stock if it gets a little thick.

5

Stir through the prawns and basil and cook for 1-2 minutes (cooked prawns will need less time), until they are pink and fully warmed through. Season to taste.

6

Spoon into bowls, crumble over the feta and scatter with fresh dill/basil and a drizzle of olive oil. Serve with crusty bread.
