Instructions

  1. In a large skillet on medium heat, roast the chopped beyond sausage links until crispy on the outside. The oil from the sausages will help roast the sausages and the spices in the next step. Add asafoetida, smoked paprika, cumin, thyme, nutritional yeast, sun-dried tomato, and harissa paste. Mix until well combined. Let it roast until the spices are fragrant (1-2mins). Add white beans and let cook for ~4-5 mins.
  2. Add crushed canned tomatoes and mix until well combined. Add coconut milk and hot honey/maple syrup. Allow to cook on medium heat uncovered for 10-15 mins, mixing often until thick desired consistency. 
  3. Top with fresh chopped dill, lemon squeezes and salt and pepper to taste. Optional additional toppings include crumbled goat cheese or feta, dill, hot honey/maple and more harissa paste. Enjoy with your favourite crusty bread.

Frequently Asked Questions

Expand All:
How spicy is this dish?

It has a little kick from the harissa, but it’s more warm and smoky than super spicy. If you’re sensitive to heat, start with half the harissa amount and add more to taste. You can also balance the spice with an extra splash of coconut milk!

Can I use a different type of beans?

Absolutely! Cannellini beans, navy beans, or even chickpeas all work well. Just stick with a creamy, mild-flavored bean to keep that rich, velvety texture.

What’s the best plant-based sausage to use?

I love using Beyond Meat or Field Roast sausages for their flavour and texture, but you can use any plant-based sausage you like. If you don’t have any on hand, crumbled tempeh or lentils would also work!

Can I make this ahead of time?

Yes! The flavours actually get better with time. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat gently on the stove with a splash of coconut milk or water to bring back the creaminess.

What can I serve this with?

This skillet is amazing with crusty sourdough for scooping, but you can also serve it over rice, quinoa, or even mashed potatoes for a heartier meal. A side of roasted veggies or a fresh green salad pairs perfectly too!
