About Baked Beans Recipe

Baked beans is one of the comfort food of the British people. I have tried baked beans before but I’m not a fan of the canned baked beans. So I wanted to make my own baked beans with a touch of Indian flavours. Traditionally baked beans is made using great Northern beans or cannelini beans. But I managed to use black eyed peas which is much more affordable in India. Traditional baked beans has bacon or pork added but I skipped that and made it entirely vegetarian. I used Indian spices like chilli powder, turmeric powder and cumin powder to give the smoky taste. Baked beans are very easy to make and it’s great to serve with some toast or rice.
