Add the bacon to the pan and fry until crisp, then add the tomatoes, paprika and a teaspoon of maple syrup. Season well with salt and black pepper. Simmer for about 20 minutes until the tomatoes have reduced down into a thick sauce, then taste and add more seasoning and maple syrup if you think it necessary. |

Purée the sauce there’ll be some flecks of bacon in it but that’s fine. Add the beans, then simmer for a few minutes to warm them through before serving. |
