Method:

1. Place olive oil, butter, the onion and speck into a large heavy based casserole dish. Stir and fry until fragrant, onion is translucent and speck is starting to colour.
2. Add garlic, herbs and spices and toast for another five minutes.
3. Add all remaining ingredients and simmer for up to 15 minutes or until liquid has reduced slightly and flavours are fully infused.
4. Can be stored in an airtight container in fridge for three days.
5. Serve warm with eggs, spinach, with melted cheese or on toast.

Notes

1. Can be cooked with in a slow cooker with dried bean if desired – before you go to bed so you wake up to the aroma – yum.
