Method

In a medium saucepan, heat the oil and add the onion. Cook over high heat for about 5 minutes until softened and starting to brown. Turn the heat down a little, add the paprika, drained beans, and chopped tomatoes to the pan and cook for a few minutes.

In a large skillet, fry the bacon until crisp and golden, then break into bite-size pieces. Set aside.

Shred the basil and add to the pan with the salt and freshly ground black pepper. Add a few shakes of hot sauce. Continue to cook until the tomatoes have broken down a little and the basil has wilted. Serve immediately, with the bacon sprinkled over the top.

Serves: 4
