Gourmet Baked Beans
serves 1–2 people
5 minutes cooking time
The first time I tasted this, my mind was blown. Who would believe the humble can of baked beans could set off fireworks on the palate. I have these beans on toast, with fish fingers, jacket potato or in a full English. These beans have been raised to another level. I promise you that you will never simply warm a can of beans and eat them plain again.
