Tomato and Cannellini Bean Dish

Tomato and Cannellini Bean Dish

This recipe features a simple and quick dish of cannellini beans braised in a sweet cherry tomato sauce. The cherry tomatoes are halved to speed up their breakdown in the pan, creating a flavourful sauce. The dish is enhanced with the addition of red onion, garlic, and basil, and can be served with optional toppings like pine nuts and soft cheese. To prepare, the onion and garlic are sautéed before adding the tomatoes to cook down. A splash of water helps create a juicy sauce, which is then blended until smooth. The drained cannellini beans are added and simmered briefly before serving with a drizzle of olive oil and toppings, alongside crusty bread for a satisfying meal.
