Portuguese Caldo Verde with Cannellini BeansContributed by: Sheryl & Mel LondonSweet onion, sausage and beans; a great dish for dinner.
Directions
Follow basic bean recipe for cooking raw beans.
Pierce the sausage, cover with water in a saucepan and bring to a boil Then lower the heat and simmer for 5 minutes to remove excess fat. Drain, discard the water, slice the sausage into 3/4" slices and reserve. In a 7-quart Dutch oven, heat the oil, add the onions and garlic and stir, sauteing for 2-3 minutes. Drain; add cubed potatoes and cook for 1-2 minutes. Add the stock and bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes. Crush the potatoes lightly in the pot using a potato masher. Add the shredded greens and simmer for 15 minutes more; add the cooked beans and reserved sausage and season with salt and pepper. *Baking potatoes should NOT be used; they disintegrate too easily rather than maintaining their shape when lightly crushed. Makes 8 servings. |
