Recipe by: Azmina Govindji

This is a dish from the Eastern seaboard of America, where the pork and beans are traditionally simmered slowly in an earthenware casserole. It is the kind of dish that you can prepare ahead and leave to bubble away while you tend to other things. Baked jacket potatoes and crusty bread are perfect for soaking up the delicious sauce.

Mixed with rice and plenty of vegetables, a small amount of succulent salmon and prawns goes a long way, making a good balance of protein and carbohydrate in this temptingly spicy, Louisiana-style dish. As an added bonus for the busy cook, it is cooked in just one pan and makes a complete meal on its own.
