Worms In Dirt
Preparation time: 15 minutes
Cooking time: 10 minutes
-
3 hot dogs
-
2 tins black beans (I could only get red kidney beans)
-
2 small sachets of squid ink (optional but perhaps necessary if you can only get red kidney beans like me)
-
A little curly parsley
Buyer's tip: Buy squid ink at good delis
Step 1 - Place a large pot of water on to boil. Leaving the skin on (I unskinned them but they curl better with the skin on), slice the hot dog in half lengthways and then slice each half into four horizontally and then slice little "worm like" pieces. Boil for a few minutes until the pieces start curling. Drain.
Step 2 - Drain and rinse the beans and blend them up with some black olives and some squid ink (if using) to colour. Gently tuck the worms into the dirt. Dot the edges with bits of curly parsley to look like grass.
