Step-by-Step Instructions
Preheat oven and prepare pans
5 minPreheat your oven to 220°C / 200°C fan and take out a wide hob- and oven-proof casserole dish or deep ovenproof pan, along with a roasting tray.
Equipment: oven, wide hob- and oven-proof casserole dish, deep ovenproof pan, roasting trayTemperature: 220°CPrepare beans and simmer sauce
5 minDrain and rinse the cannellini beans and add half of it along with the creamy gratin sauce to your casserole dish and place over medium low heat and bring to a gentle simmer. Spread the rest of the cannellini beans on a roasting tray and stir through a drizzle of olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
Equipment: casserole dish, roasting traySlice courgettes and bake gratin
22 minSlice both the green courgette and yellow courgette into thin rounds, about 2mm thick. Use a mandoline if you have one to get even slices for the best result. Add about ⅓ to half of them into the simmering gratin sauce, and lay the rest in an even single layer on top. Gently press them into the sauce. Drizzle over some olive oil and place in the oven to bake for 15-20minutes until the top is golden and courgette is cooked. Use a knife to check the doneness before removing from the oven. Place the tray of seasoned cannellini beans into the oven at the same time. They should become golden and crispy in 15-20min.
