Provided by Ina Garten

Time 9h30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
4 pounds spinach, stems removed, washed and dried
2 medium onions peeled and cut into small cubes
6 garlic cloves, peeled and finely chopped
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint leaves
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves
1 tablespoon harissa or 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon Four-Spice Power (recipe follows)
1/2 pound dried cannellini beans, black-eyed peas, soaked overnight in cold water and drained
2 pounds merguez sausage: 1 long link or individual links
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 2 lemons)
Coarse sea salt or kosher salt
2 teaspoons whole cloves
1 heaping tablespoon black peppercorns
2 teaspoons freshly grated nutmeg
1 teaspoon ground ginger

Steps:

  • Cook's Note: For television, Daniel Boulud substituted dried chick peas for the cannellini peas.
  • Center a rack in the oven and preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
  • Heat 1/4 cup of the olive oil in a wide cast-iron pot or Dutch oven over high heat. Add the spinach, little by little, and cook, stirring continuously, until all the spinach has wilted and browned slightly and all the liquid has evaporated, 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Add the onions, garlic, mint, cilantro, harissa (or cayenne), black pepper, and Four-Spice Powder and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes.
  • Pour in 4 cups water and add the cannellini beans (or black-eyed peas). Stir, bring to a simmer, and cover. Braise in the oven for 2 hours, or until the beans are nearly tender.
  • Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Sear the merguez on all sides, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a plate lined with a paper towel to drain.
  • Stir the lemon juice into the beans and place the seared merguez on top. Cover and continue to braise until the beans are tender and the sausage is cooked through, about 30 minutes more. Season with salt to taste.
  • This recipe was provided by professional chefs and has been scaled down from a bulk recipe provided by a restaurant. The Food Network Kitchens chefs have not tested this recipe, in the proportions indicated, and therefore, we cannot make any representation as to the results.
  • In a spice grinder or clean coffee grinder, finely grind the cloves and black pepper together. Transfer to a bowl and combine with the nutmeg and ginger.

WHITE BEANS WITH SPINACH & SAUSAGE RECIPE - (4/5)



White Beans with Spinach & Sausage Recipe - (4/5) image

Provided by pga_jam

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 pound kielbasa (turkey or chicken work great if you don't' want to use beef!)
2 cups chicken broth (vegetable broth works great in a pinch as well!)
2 cloves of garlic
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cups Cannellini beans (you can use canned if needed make sure you rinse them as well)* see my suggestion above if using dry beans
Two medium sized tomatoes diced up really small, it should come to about 1 cup or more
6 cups baby spinach leaves
Freshly cracked pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Directions ** I can't believe I never told you how and when I add the sausage in! I am so sorry everyone I've been without a computer for several weeks so I couldn't add it in. Sausage- I cook the sausage in a cast iron skillet before adding to the beans. I like to sear it well on teh sides then cut it up ( if using sausage links). Once it's all cooked I add it along with whatever juice/grease that the sausage made from the pan and add it into the beans. If you cook in anything other than a cast iron skillet a little oil would help in the pan but I never add anything in the cast iron . *** Pour chicken broth and garlic into a large pot. Place on medium high heat and bring to a simmer. Add in the oil and oregano then beans. Stir it up before adding in tomatoes. Heat through till the beans are tender. If using canned it won't take long at all. Once beans are tender add in the spinach and cook just until the leaves are wilted. Stir it in and sprinkle cracked pepper on top.

HERBED WHITE BEAN AND SAUSAGE STEW



Herbed White Bean and Sausage Stew image

Here's a meaty, cold-weather stew laden with white beans, sweet Italian sausage, rosemary, thyme, cumin and garlic. It is deeply flavored and complex, but quite easy to make. Pan-fry the sausages in a bit of olive oil, then sauté the vegetables with cumin and tomato paste in the drippings. Add plenty of water and the dried beans that, wait for it, you did not have to soak. Simmer until the house is fragrant and the windows fog up (about 2 hours).

1 tablespoon tomato paste
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
2 medium carrots, finely diced
2 celery stalks, finely diced
