Sausage Stew

Sausage Stew

 

It sounds bizarre, well actually it is! But my god it tastes fantastic. It is all stuff that I had lying around in the cupboards so I haven't bought anything special. This should serve 4 - 6 people easily.

 

 

 

Ingredients

 

• 1 tbsp. oil
• 1 tbsp. mixed herbs
• 1/2 tsp. black pepper
• 6 thick sausages
• 2 large white potatoes
• 6 tbsp. peas
• 6 tbsp. sliced carrots

 

The Not-So Nitty Gritty

 

1. Add the oil, mixed herbs and black pepper to the pan and gently heat until it starts to smell aromatic.
2. Then cut the sausages into 6 sections each. Brown lightly.
3. Add 1L vegetable stock to the casserole dish along with 2 large white potatoes that have been peeled and chopped into chunks.
4. Then add the peas and carrots and leave to simmer on a reduced heat for 45 minutes to an hour.
5. Serve with bread, lots of bread.
