Method

  • 1.
    Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook the eschalot, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until softened.
  • 2.
    Remove and discard the casings from the sausages. Cut the meat into 2cm pieces, and add to the pan. Cook, turning, to brown sausage on all sides.
  • 3.
    Add the red wine, scraping bottom of pan with a spoon, then add the tomato passata and stir to combine. When passata begins to simmer, season with salt flakes and add the beans. Cover and cook for 30 minutes over very low heat. If necessary, add a little hot water to loosen the sauce.
  • 4.
    As soon as the beans are tender and the sauce is creamy, turn off the heat and stand for a few minutes before serving with chopped parsley.
