Caramelised Onion, Harissa, and Tahini Butterbeans

These comforting beans have familiar flavours with notes of spice and richness. The secret ingredient is time - don’t be tempted to rush caramelising ...the onions. Let them cook low and slow, becoming melted and sweet before proceeding and you will be rewarded. We love creamy butterbeans in this one, but any white bean, chickpeas or pinto beans work well. This can be eaten for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Have it in the morning on toast, or for dinner with some roasted potatoes and a big side of greens.
