Method

  1. 1

    Brown the sausages all over in oil for 8 minutes; they don't need to be cooked through yet. Then cut them in half.

  2. 2

    Cut the onion, carrots and pepper (optional) into pieces, put them in the bottom of the slow cooker and lay the sausages on top.

  3. 3

    Mix the garlic, chopped tomatoes, stock, paprika and Worcestershire sauce (optional) and pour over the sausages.

  4. 4

    Cook for 6–7 hours on LOW or 3–4 hours on HIGH. Stir in the drained beans for the last hour so they stay whole.

  5. 5

    Taste and season with pepper and salt if needed. Mash a few beans against the side of the pot for a thicker sauce.
