Bean Stew with Sausages and Sour Cream

As promised, here is another bean stew recipe. This one is a bit more "sinful", but it's so good that it's worth cooking at least once or twice a year.

For this very tasty bean stew, it's important to choose some good sausages and, if you also add smoked pork breast or bacon, it will be even better.

Step by step

Step 1

Let the beans soak in water overnight, so they will boil better and faster.

Then boil for two or three hours with some bay leaves, a little oil, an onion and water - two or three times more than the beans.
