Instructions:
Instructions: Rinse the soaked beans and cover with water.

Add the tomato (the acid in the tomato makes the skin less tough).

Cover with water bring to the boil cover the pan and then simmer for about 1 1/2 hours or until tender.

Drain (discarding the tomato).

Slice the leeks as thinly as possible across and at an angle.

Fry them with the garlic in the butter and oil and add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.

Stir in the butter beans and add the cream. Place in a shallow dish sprinkle with the Parmesan and bake in a hot oven (230C/450F/gas 8) for 10 to 15 minutes until golden.

I tike to have this as a side dish with a roast. Its absolutely superb! And nice with panfried lamb chops and some spinach.
