- 2 (822.13 g) can diced tomatoes, undrained

directions
- Form sausage into approximately 1-inch meatballs. Heat oil in large pot over medium heat. Add sausages and fry them, turning them over until they are completely browned. Remove from pot and set aside.
- While the sausages are browning, peel the onion and garlic and chop them as small as you can. Add the onion to the pot, turn the heat to low, cover the pot and sweat the onion, frying it gently in the pan for around 10 minutes, stirring from time to time so it doesn't catch on the bottom of the pot.
- Add the garlic and fry for another two or three minutes. Stir in the brown sugar, nutmeg, cayenne, cloves and thyme.
- Add the tomatoes and beans. Return sausages to the pot. Season with salt and pepper. Stir well and turn the heat up to medium. When the stew starts to simmer, put the lid on, turn the heat down and let it bubble gently. Stir occasionally. Allow stew to simmer for thirty minutes.

I want to thank everyone who has made a recipe I've posted. I know your time is valuable, and it's a leap of faith to try a recipe that has zero or very few reviews. I really do appreciate it.
I'm addicted to cookbooks. I love buying them, I love borrowing them from the library, I love receiving them as presents.
I love to cook (hate the messy dishes, however), but I don't cook very often. I'm mostly a weekend cook.
I'm a library assistant at an elementary school. I'm a big fan of children's literature.
I'm single and I don't have children, but I do have kitten babies that I adore like nothing else in this world.
