Molasses are the secret ingredient in Boston baked beans - they give a savoury depth to this delicious slow-cooked dish. Equipment and preparation: for this recipe you will need a slow cooker.

Method


  1. Place the dried haricot beans, onions and tomatoes into a slow cooker.

  2. In a spouted bowl, mix together all of the remaining ingredients until well combined. Pour the mixture into the slow-cooker and stir to coat the beans and vegetables as evenly as possible.

  3. Pour over 500ml/18fl oz cold water, place the lid on the slow-cooker, then cook on a high heat for 7-8 hours, or until the beans have absorbed the liquid and plumped up and the sauce has darkened and thickened.

  4. Serve with toast, ribs or a full English breakfast.

Ingredients

  • 200g/7oz dried haricot beans
  • 1 onion, finely chopped

  • 4 tbsp pomegranate molasses (available from larger supermarkets and delicatessens)
