Sausage Stew

Sausage Stew

This sausage stew is a go to meal to warm up your soul in the winter- but don't let that stop you from cooking it all-year-round! If you want to make this vegetarian, mushrooms work as a great replacement for the sausages.

Ingredients

Tick ingredients off as you gather them.

Method

  1. Heat 2 tbsp olive oil to the pan and put the onions with a lid (on a medium-low heat) to sweat for 10 minutes.

  2. Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a frying pan, brown the sausages all over, then add to the casserole.

  3. Deglaze the frying pan with a little stock, then pour into the casserole - that way you get all the sticky flavour the sausages left!

  4. Add the lentils, prunes and remaining stock to the pan – make sure that the liquid jsut about covers everything in the pan, adding water if necessary.

  5. Bring the pan to a low simmer, cover and leave on the stove for an hour to an hour and a half. Give the mixture a stir every 30 minutes or so to make sure its not sticking to the bottom.

  6. Season to taste, and serve.

Notes

I think this goes great with cooked veg, a sweet potato mash or even just plain white rice!
