Spicy Kidney Bean Stew with Sausage

Growing up in a Western European family, there where always a few dishes that I loved when my family made it. The spicy kidney bean stew with sausage was right up there. I really enjoyed the richness of the beans, the sauce that I would use bread for dipping and the smoked sausage with its spicy flavour really gave it that final kick. This was one meal that I would not hesitate asking for seconds and at times thirds.

The dish takes just over 30 minutes to make and is a warm meal on a cold night but this doesn't mean you can't enjoy it when its hot outside. The choice of kidney beans is important, make sure you choose a brand name for a few cents more it will keep the beans from going mushy. The choice of sausage is up to you, you can go with a mild smoked sausage if your not a fan of spice. I personally enjoy the hot version of smoked sausage. You can pick up the sausage at your local butcher shop.
