Ingredients

Pepper
Salt
2 cups Water
1 tsp. Sugar
1/4 tsp. Cocoa powder
1/4 tsp. Ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp. Smoked paprika
2 tsp. Dried chilli flakes
1 tbsp. Mixed dried herbs
2 Bay leaves
4 cloves Garlic
1 Large sweet potato, peeled and cubed
1 Large onion, chopped finely
796 ml Crushed tomatoes
300 g Dried beans

Method

01

Put all of the ingredients into your slow cooker. Stir them well.
02

Set slow cooker to your desired heat setting depending on how long you want it to cook for.
03

If you don't have a slow cooker you can also cook this in a pan or the oven. Start by sauteing the onions and garlic then add all of the other ingredients. I don't use any oil and just use a dry pan but if you want to use a little oil that's fine too.
04

Simmer for as long as you can to get the best flavor but at least until the beans are tender, 3 hours at least, less if you are using pre-cooked or canned beans. If using canned it could be ready in as little as 40 minutes. The longer it simmers the better it will be though! If cooking in the oven set the oven to 300°F and cook until the beans are tender and the sauce rich and thick.
05

Check your beans are cooked through and soft before serving.
