Ingredients

  • 150g Waitrose Wholesome Black Turtle Beans
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  3. Add the harissa to the pan, to taste, followed by the apricot pieces, mixing them well.
  4. Stir in the cherry tomatoes and the beans and return to the heat, uncovered, for a further 5 minutes, or until piping hot. Season generously and serve with dollops of Greek yogurt, fresh coriander, couscous, rice or tortillas.

So good, even the children ate it without complaining about it being vegetarian

This is a fantastic healthy recipe. I love the sweetness of the fruit and the unique taste of the harissa.

This is my favourite Waitrose recipe so far. Quick, easy and full of flavour. I like to serve it on three rice with a dollop of soured cream.
