Serves 2 & takes 35 minutes to cook
Ingredients
1 onion, peeled and diced
3 garlic cloves, peeled and crushed
2 red peppers, thinly sliced
1x 400g can of butter beans, drained
2 heaped teaspoons of smoked paprika
2 tablespoons of harissa paste
1 tablespoon of thick balsamic vinegar
Juice of 1 lime
1x 400g can of tinned tomatoes
Olive oil
Salt
For the topping
100g feta
Dollop of plain yoghurt
Pinch of chilli flakes
Pinch of pepper
Method
1. Place a large pan over a medium heat and add a drizzle of olive oil. Once warm, add the diced onion, garlic and a pinch of salt. Mix well and cook for 5-10 minutes until soft.
2. Once soft, add the sliced peppers, drained butter beans and paprika. Mix well and cook for another 5-10 minutes until the peppers and butter beans start to become soft.
3. At this point, mix through the harissa paste, balsamic, lime juice and tinned tomatoes. Mix well and leave to simmer for 10-15 minutes - if it begins to bubble too aggressively, reduce the temperature a little.
4. Once the dish is hot, crumble the feta all over the top and cook for another few minutes.
5. Serve with a dollop of yoghurt on top, a pinch of chilli flakes and some pepper.
