BBQ Temperature

Ingredients

3 tbsp olive oil
1 onion, finely chopped
2 tsp mild curry powder
Pinch of salt
1 tin Heinz Baked Beans
50 ml water (enough to loosen)
Fresh chilli or Sriracha sauce, optional
Salt and pepper to season, optional

Equipment

A non stick pan - I use the amazing Tefal Ingenio stainless pans, or a cast iron skillet.

Method

Preheat your Egg to 200°C and setup for a direct cook.
Place your pan on the Egg to warm and add a little olive oil.
Add the onions to the pan and cook for 2 to 3 minutes.
Now add the curry powder and cook for a further 2 minutes until the curry powder has cooked out.
Add your tin of beans to the pan and give it a good zhuzh!
You may need to add a bit of water to loosen the beans.
Stir occasionally and cook until the onions have softened.
Give the beans a taste, if you want to spice them up a bit, then add some fresh chilli or your favourite sriracha sauce. Taste again!
Once cooked take the beans off the Egg and pile on a slice of buttered toast.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
