Butter beans are great with lamb as they lap up those beautiful juices and flavours, especially when cooked slow and low in a stew.

Butter beans are great with lamb as they lap up those beautiful juices and flavours, especially when cooked slow and low in a stew. I like to use lamb belly for a cheaper cut and harissa paste for punch.
Darren my lecturer spent a lot of time in Greece, so this is a recipe he taught me. It’s white beans in an aromatic cinnamon sauce and it is very simple to make. You can use any white bean but I think butter beans are best to add texture.
Whether served with pasta or even used as a stuffing in ravioli, braised butter beans in a creamy pesto sauce is to die for.
Creamed beans are a great way of serving butter beans. It’s a fab way of injecting flavour and it works as a great side or starter with some dipping bread. I like to serve alongside smoked chilli meatballs with tahini.
Butter beans cooked alongside your favourite sausages take on the delicious flavourful fat and glisten with gorgeousness. I like to serve the sausages and butter beans alongside roasted purple sprouting broccoli and quality cheese – something like Yorkshire pecorino.
