Method

01
Sauté the onion in 2 tbsp olive oil until soft before adding the spices. Cook for a minute before adding the purée and cook again for 1 minute before adding the tomatoes and stock. Season well and simmer for 5 minutes until the sauce is slightly thickened.
02
Blanch the beans and edamame in boiling water for 3-4 minutes and then add to the sauce. Simmer gently for 10-15 minutes until cooked but still slightly crunchy, adding a little more water if necessary.
03
Finally stir in the honey and artichokes and cook for a further 5 minutes, at which point the sauce should be quite thick.
