Chorizo can take something from atypical to delicious. These breakfast Chorizo Baked Beans on Toast are a traditional instance!

Baked beans are a breakfast staple in Australia and the UK. Really, baked beans are a meal staple full cease – breakfast, lunch and dinner!

I lived my college days surviving on extra baked beans than I care to recollect. Open the can, pour onto toast, and microwave. It’s nearly like a proper of passage being a uni pupil. Canned baked beans and tuna on rice. Spend as little as attainable on meals so you have got as a lot as attainable for beer. 🙂

As an “grownup”, I can most likely rely the variety of occasions I’ve had canned baked beans on one hand. I’m not a lofty turn-up-my-nose kind individual. Having been on prolonged bush bashing journeys in distant components of Australia in 40 levels / 105F scorching warmth, you be taught to be pleased about meals in any type. Canned beans have been a luxurious in comparison with, say….goanna. Sure, I actually did feast on wild goannas (which clearly I had nothing to do with catching, skinning, gutting or cooking…..).

Oops, sorry to show you off!

The explanation I hardly ever have canned baked beans these days is as a result of I attempted actual baked beans, the selfmade actual deal. And since then, I’ve by no means been in a position to have a look at baked beans the identical once more. It’s like….whenever you strive French champagne for the primary time. Or a French brie. You understand what I imply!

Right here’s the factor about actual severe selfmade baked beans – that you must cook dinner it lengthy and sluggish. And often you add a hock or speck, one thing with meaty, smokey flavours that infuses into the sauce.

I positively plan to share a correct sluggish cooked baked beans recipe within the coming months. However this one is barely totally different. No hock, and it’s prepared in round quarter-hour. The flavour oomph from the chorizo which is minced up and cooked with the beans is why these velocity baked beans are so tasty, despite the fact that it isn’t sluggish cooked for 3 hours. 🙂

Oh, earlier than I log off, only a little bit of meals trivia for you! These baked beans are UK/Australian model which can be historically thought-about to be breakfast meals, not American model. American model beans have extra of a syrupy, thick sauce, typically made with molasses (amongst many different elements!) and is historically served as a aspect for barbecue feasts. Each are yummy – simply totally different!

Lastly – can anybody enlighten me…why are these known as baked beans? They aren’t baked!!

Completely happy weekend!

Ingredients

6 1/2 oz / 200g chorizo (Note 1)
1 tbsp olive oil
2 garlic cloves , minced
1/2 onion , diced (white, brown or yellow)
14 oz / 420g canned cannellini beans (or any other white beans, such as navy), drained
14 oz / 420g can crushed tomatoes
1/2 cup water
1 tbsp sugar (brown, white or raw - or even honey)
1 tsp paprika
1 1/2 tsp cumin powder
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper or red chili flakes (optional)
1 tsp salt
Black pepper
Eggs , cooked to your liking sunny side up (or poached or boiled)
Sourdough bread slices , toasted

Instructions

Dice most of the chorizo, leaving some in slice form if you want to use them for garnish like I did.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over high heat.
Add the garlic and onions and cook for 2 minutes or until starting to turn translucent.
Add the chorizo (all of it) and saute until the chorizo is nicely browned.
Add the remaining Baked Beans ingredients. Bring to simmer, then turn it down to medium low and leave to bubble away gently for 10 minutes or so, stirring occasionally. Add a splash of water if it gets too thick to your liking.
Adjust salt and pepper to taste.
Pile the Baked Beans onto toasted sourdough and top with a fried egg.

Notes

1. Chorizo comes raw and cured. Cured chorizo is like salami - you can eat it as is. Raw chorizo is like a sausage, but much firmer. It must be cooked before eating. I like to use the raw chorizo, which is also usually better value than the cured ones.
6.5 oz / 200g chorizo is about 1 1/2 standard size chorizos that you get in Australia at delis. I know it's weird to say 1 1/2 chorizo - but I really found 1 was not quite enough and 2 was more than enough!
2. Nutrition per serving assuming 4 servings.
