Method

  1. 1

    Heat the oil in a large lidded casserole. Brown the bratwursts for 5 minutes, turning, then remove and set aside.

  2. 2

    Slice the onions into half-moons and fry in the same pan for 8 minutes until golden and softened.

  3. 3

    Stir in the caraway seeds and mustard, then pour in the lager. Scrape up any bits from the bottom of the pan.

  4. 4

    Drain and rinse the haricot beans and add to the pan with the vinegar. Nestle the bratwursts back in.

  5. 5

    Cover and cook on a low heat for 30 minutes. Remove the lid for the final 10 minutes to reduce the sauce. Serve with rye bread.
