Ingredients

Olive oil
Pack of sausages
1 onion, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, crushed
Can chopped Italian tomatoes
Pinch of sugar
410g can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
Handful fresh basil leaves (optional)

Method

Heat the oil in a large frying pan, add the sausages and cook until golden and cooked through, turning occasionally.
Push the sausages to 1 side, add the onion and garlic and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Add the tomatoes to the pan (swish out the can with a little water and pour that in, too). Add the sugar and seasoning and cook for 6-8 minutes, until thickened. Stir in the beans and cook for 5 minutes. Stir in the basil, if using, just before serving.
