STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS: The beans keep well and reheat perfectly, so they’re great for meal prep. Store them in the fridge for up to 4 days, then just reheat them in the microwave at 30-second intervals, or gently on the stovetop on low heat. You’ll want to add a splash of water to help the sauce loosen up as you reheat it.

INGREDIENTS NOTES: Play around here and add in more green veggies if you like – frozen peas are great, as is broccoli, broccolini or asparagus, or stir in a couple of big handfuls of spinach at the end. You could use creme fraiche, coconut cream, full-fat Greek yogurt or heavy cream in place of the sour cream. Swap the bacon for chorizo or another good-quality sausage, or throw in some cooked shredded chicken (a great way to use up leftovers from a roasted chicken). Or, skip the bacon to make it vegetarian (and use vegetarian parmesan). Skip the fish sauce if you like but it adds a GORGEOUS savoury, umami depth you won’t get from salt alone. It’s my secret, power ingredient I use all the time and I recommend you give it a chance (I promise it doesn’t taste fishy!)

SERVING SUGGESTIONS: This is truly enough by itself – the beans are filling – but serving it with a side of soft flatbreads, chilli cheese focaccia, rosemary parmesan bread or even 2 ingredient dough naan always goes down well.
