Notes:
- This recipe can be adapted to a vegetarian meal ... using vegetarian sausages and vegetarian bacon in place of the chorizo.
- If you are allergic to wine (or do not drink it) it can be omitted from the recipe.
Did you know - the aduki bean is a tiny, reddish-brown bean with a cream coloured seam and sweet, nutty flavour. Aduki beans are regarded as the king of beans in Japan and are prized for their health-giving properties: reputedly benefitting the liver and the kidneys.

Could you use kidney beans instead? This sounds delicious.

This looks delicious. I've bookmarked this to make this week as it's turned cool and windy again, so I need some comforting food. X

Hello, and thanks for your comment ...
Yes, I'm sure kidney beans (and even cannellini beans) would be fine in this recipe.
Give it a try, it's such a warming and tasty dish.

One pot wonders are often great aren't they? Despite my vegetarian status I tend to avoid veggie 'meat' and go down the legume path.
I suppose one could substitute something else for the beans... I just have a dislike for beans in general.

Hello William, and thanks for your comment.
With this recipe I'm sure any type of bean would work - even baked beans!
However, for those who dislike beans the recipe would work without ...

Sounds like a wonderful meaty recipe! I've never tried aduki beans, they sound very good and nutritious as well! Hope you are having a lovely week :)
This recipe sure would be welcome in our home. I'm not familiar with aduki beans, but I'm sure any bean could be substituted. ♥
I can almost smell this cooking. I bought some vegetarian sausages the other day which I thunk may work well in this.
