    Love this recipe - so simple and easy to make. As good for friends dropping over on a Saturday night as it is for a midweek meal. Really hearty and great for winter.

    Absolutely delicious! It has become a firm favourite over night. I served it with a creamy mashed potato and a glass of wine. It's the perfect dish to serve family and friends alike.

    Great storecupboard recipe, even my fussy teenager who doesn't 'do beans' (except baked!) liked this. I made this after being away for the weekend and came home to be greeted with a cry of 'nothing to eat in the house'. One great meal later, it was 'Mum you're a miracle worker.'

    Scrumptious dish, couldnt find Toulose sausages (too near cHristmas- it was all chipolatas!) but found red onion & red wine ones which worked perfectly. Served it with, crispy new potatoes & roasted tomatoes & french bread to mop up the juices. Big hit! Will definately be making it again. Great homely dinner party dish sure to impress.

    Very tasty and so easy to make. We cant find Toulouse sausage in our local supermarket so I usually use any spicy sausages I can find. Great to prepare in advance.

    There were no Toulouse sausages in the supermarket so I bought Pork & Spiced Apricot ones instead. I also used Chorizo instead of bacon and added an onion (and some more garlic). Served it alongside a portion of mustardy mash. Was absolutely delicious, the chorizo made all the difference!

    We couldn't find Toulouse sausages, but used Waitrose Pepper and Red Chilli sausages instead, and those were fantastic. When we re-did it later with Toulouse sausages, it was obvious that the Chilli ones were better! No matter how you do it though, it's a fantastic, quick, tasty and warming stew.

    Didn't like the look of it, didn't look very promising... but it tasted fantastic! Went down very well with my Husband, he wants me to cook it again. I think I will try it will less fatty bacon next time as that bit put me off a little. Yum, Yum, filling winter warmer.

    A great, quick and easy recipe. I've tried it with chorizo instead of bacon too and it was lovely. Served it to my parents-in-law and even they were impressed!

    This was delicious! My boyfriend said it was the best thing he's eaten in months! I used pancetta instead of bacon because it needed using up, definately a favourite from now on.
