  • About

This really simple salad can be served as an accompaniment to plain fish or chicken dishes, or served with crusty bread as a hearty lunch or supper dish. The combination of spicy sausage, tender, sweet beans and delicate mushrooms is quite delicious.

Ingredients

  • 225 g/8 oz shelled broad (fava) beans
  • 175 g/6

Method

  1. Cook the broad beans in a pan of salted boiling water for 7–8 minutes. Drain and refresh under cold water.
  2. Remove the skin from the sausage. If it doesn’t peel off easily, score along the length of the sausage with a sharp knife first. Cut the chorizo into small chunks. Heat the oil in a small pan, add the chorizo and cook for 2–3 minutes.
