Preheat the oven to 180C/160C fan/Gas 4. In a medium flameproof casserole, heat two tablespoons of the oil and add the onions. Sweat the onions over a medium heat for 15 minutes then add the garlic, chilli and herbs and cook for a couple more minutes.
Add your tomatoes (squish them a bit so they are a bit smoother) and add to the onions and garlic. Reduce down then add the wine. Let this bubble away for a couple of minutes and then add the stock. Cook slowly for an hour, give a little blitz (or don't), and then add in the beans.
Now brown your sausages. Fry them till they're a good colour on all sides (approx 10 mins of cooking).
Transfer the sausages to the casserole dish then brown your bacon.
Add the bacon to the rest of the stew. Season well with salt and pepper, cover with a lid and put it in the oven for an hour and 30 minutes. After this time remove the lid and return to the oven for a further 30 minutes to reduce the sauce a bit.
Finally, stir through the lemon juice and parsley. Make sure you season.And serve to your hungry (not 'hangry') family!
