Spiced fennel (and other things)

I'm starting my new year's resolutions early and planning to devote more time to this neglected blog and my cooking in general.
Today's recipe:
2 onions
2 cloves of garlic, crushed
small head of fennel
1 inch piece of ginger, grated
Bit of cabbage

Cook all of these a while in olive oil. add a couple of teaspoons of garam masala and 3 chopped tomatoes. Cook until the tomato starts to break down. Add half a tin of baked beans* and a little water or stock to moisten, depending on your beans. Cover and cook gently for about 20 mins until the veg is cooked but not mushy. Season with black pepper.
I had this with quinoa with a little liquid aminos on it. Very tasty it was too.

* I only eat Whole Earth organic beans. They don't have refined sugar and are much more flavoursome than ordinary baked beans. I eat loads of them!

Followed up with some stewed damsons which had been in the freezer. I just cooked them with a little water and a dollop of concentrated apple juice spread stuff, and then spat out all the stones as I went along!
