½ tsp mustard powder
1 tin haricot beans, drained
1 tsp brown sugar

Great with fresh, crusty bread.

Method

Fry the onion in a splash of oil until soft. Add the tomatoes, the tomato puree, the apple and the water and reduce down by boiling for 5 minutes.

Add the herbs and mustard powder, mix well and leave to cool for a few minutes.

Whizz the mixture in a blender and then put it back in the pan along with the beans and cook on a low heat for 5 minutes.

Add the sugar, stir well and serve.
