Smoky Bacon Beans on Fried Bread
Step 1.
Thinly slice ½ the onions then toss with the vinegar, a pinch of sugar and a little salt. Set aside. Mince the garlic and finely dice the remaining onion.
Step 2.
Heat a frying pan over a medium heat. Add the lardons with a drizzle of olive oil and cook until golden brown and crispy. Transfer to a plate, leaving the fat in the pan. Pour the olive oil (the full quantity listed in the ingredients list) into the pan and fry the bread in batches until golden on both sides. Transfer the fried bread to serving plates.
Step 3.
Add the diced onion and garlic to the pan and stir-fry for 6-8 mins until soft. Stir in the smoked paprika and bay leaf, then return the lardons to the pan. Pour in the black beans with their liquid and bring to a gentle simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 4-5 mins until thickened. Season with salt and plenty of black pepper.
Step 4.
Spoon the beans over the fried bread and top with the pickled onions and a splash of the pickle juice.
