Curry Bean Stew

This fragrant, hearty dish is great on its own or spooned over rice or potatoes.

Makes 2-4 servings

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large onion, diced
1 Polish sausage, cubed
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon curry powder
2 cans butter beans, drained
5 tablespoons ketchup
1 cup water
salt and pepper to taste

In a pot, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onions and sausage, and cook stirring occasionally until onion turns golden brown. Add garlic and curry and cook until fragrant, about 20-30 seconds.  Add beans, ketchup, salt, pepper and water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer, cover, and cook about 15 minutes. Uncover and cook until sauce is slightly reduced, about 5 minutes.

Serve topped with cilantro or parsley.
