Instructions: Rinse the soaked beans and cover with water.

Add 1 tomato (the acid in the tomato makes the skins less tough).

Bring to the boil cover the pan and simmer for about 1 1/2 hours or until tender.

Remove the cores from the remaining 10 tomatoes and score a cross on top of each.

Place into boiling water and remove fairly quickly or when you can peel the skin off. Take out the seeds roughly chop the tomatoes place in a bowl and add the remaining ingredients.

Drain the cooked butter beans (discarding the tomato cooked with them) and gently stir them into the tomato marinade.

Leave for about 15 minutes as this will improve the flavour.

Serve warm or cold.

Try this one on its own with a green salad or served warm with roasted white fish such as cod or monk fish. It goes really well with chicken and pork as well.
