Its comfort Food night, which calls for Baked Beans. And making it from scratch can't get any better.
I've got very fond memories when it comes to baked beans. Usually a Sunday night speciality. A sure shot winner with everyone. A family favorite. I personally don't like the ones we get in cans. Its got a typical preservative odur. But now I always make using navy beans which are widely available in any store or mall. I have also shared a picture of the navy beans for your reference.
So all you need is :
Ingredients :
1. Navy Beans : 1 1/2 cup of beans ( soaked overnight and pressure cooked for 15 mins)
2. Tomato : 1/2 kg or 5 big tomatoes (blanched, skin removed and chopped)
3. Onion : 1 cup ( finely chopped )
4. Green chilli : 1 Tbsp
5. Tomato ketchup : 1 Tbsp
6. Tabasco : 1 Tbsp
7. Salt and Sugar to taste
8. Ghee : 2 Tbsp
9. Jeera : 1 tsp
10. Water : 1 cup
Method :
1. In a pan, heat ghee add jeera, let it crackle add the onions and chillies. Cook the onions till it turns a little translucent. Do not fry them completely. Now add the blanched and chopped tomato. Let it cook for 2 mins.
2. Add the beans & tomato ketchup and tabasco.
3. Now add water as per your requirement, salt and sugar to taste. Bring it up to boil for 5 mins.
4. Serve warm with toast or baked potatoes.
