Coconut bean casserole instructions

1. STOVE-TOP - to make this on the stove, fry the leeks / onion gently for a few minutes in a large pot, and then add the garlic, chilli and herbs and fry for another couple of minutes. Now add all the other ingredients except the water / stock. Simmer, checking it occasionally to stir and add liquid as necessary. It is done when all the vegetables are tender - up to about 30 minutes..
2. SLOW COOKER - to make this in a slow cooker, you don't need the oil or the water/stock. I like to microwave the leeks / onions for 2 minutes first (optional - I find that, sometimes, larger chunks of onion are still a bit undercooked even after hours in the slow cooker!) Then just add all the ingredients to the slow cooker at once. DO NOT add any water. Cook on high for about 4 hours..

Reserve a little coriander for garnish and chop the rest. When the casserole is ready, stir in the chopped coriander and serve garnished with the reserved leaves. Top with the onions and garlic. Bring a gallon of water to a boil in a large stockpot and prepare a bowl of ice water. Meanwhile, make the coconut bacon by combining the coconut flakes, liquid smoke, and paprika in a small bowl.
