Our first encounter with Baked beans was during our stay in Maldives. Till then we had only heard of them as an American breakfast. I fell in love with them instantly. Since then I have been wanting to try them at home.
The other day as we walked down the regular food store, my eyes fell on these Lima beans. I immediately picked them, not thinking once how I would go about with the recipe. It's only after a couple of researches online, I zeroed to making this for our breakfast.
Baked Beans
INGREDIENTS
1 cup Lima Beans
1 tsp butter
1 tsp Molasses/brown sugar
3 tbsp Tomato ketchup
1 cup water
Freshly ground pepper
Salt to taste
DIRECTIONS
Wash and soak the beans overnight or for about 8 hours. Drain the water and pressure cook the beans in boiling water for 3 whistles. In a pan, saute butter and add the cooked beans. Mix 1 cup reserved liquid from cooked beans, molasses/brown sugar, tomato ketchup and salt. Pour over beans and mix well. Cover and cook on simmer for 15 minutes. Season with pepper. Serve hot with bread toast and a blob of butter.
