- 1 large brown onion, diced
- 375 ml tomato conserve or good-quality tomato pasta sauce

When the weather turns cold, this simple, comforting dish of Italian pork sausages, beans, and tomato warms you from the inside out.
It’s rustic Venetian cooking at its best - especially when served with a generous drizzle of our new JOSEPH olive oil!
1. In a large frying pan, warm a little JOSEPH Olive Oil over medium heat.
2. Add the diced onion and cook for 2 minutes until softened.
3. Add the sausage pieces and brown all over.
4. Pour in the tomato conserve and stir through the basil or oregano. Season with salt and pepper.
5. Let the sauce simmer gently until it begins to reduce — about 15–20 minutes.
6. Add the beans and cook for another 5–10 minutes, taking care not to mash them.
7. Remove from heat and finish with a generous drizzle of olive oil.
Serve with a radicchio salad and crusty bread for mopping up the sauce. A final drizzle of JOSEPH Olive Oil brings the dish to life with a touch of pepper and spice!
