Creamy Tomato & Basil Beans
  1. Sauté the onions in plenty of olive oil and a pinch of salt for 8 mins.

  2. Add garlic and fry three mins more, then add tomato puree, the chopped fresh tomatoes and a big pinch of salt.

  3. Bring to the boil, then bubble and simmer for 5-6 mins.

  4. Add the beans + their juices from the can (I pour a little out of the top first) and the basil, reserving a little for garnish. Bubble for a further 5 mins.

  5. Scoop out 2 spoonfuls and blend with the firm tofu, nooch and miso. Add a splash or two of water to help it blend to a smooth consistency, season to taste.

  6. Tip the blended mixture into the beans, mix and gently heat.

  7. Serve with yoghurt, olive oil, black pepper and enjoy with a slice of sourdough bread.
