Method

  1. 1

    Heat the olive oil in a saucepan and sauté the onion and garlic for 3–4 minutes until softened.

  2. 2

    Stir in the chopped tomatoes, oregano and paprika and bring to a simmer.

  3. 3

    Add the drained butter beans and simmer gently for 12–15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened and the beans are heated through.

  4. 4

    Season to taste and scatter with chopped parsley.

  5. 5

    Serve with crusty bread.

Use up the rest

Cooking this for one leaves 20 g parsley, ½ tin of chopped tomato and ¼ tin of butter beans. These recipes finish them off, so plan one later in the same week.

Good with the rest of your week
