Now, back to the sausage casserole, I have never actually cooked one of these before but have eaten many prepared by 30%. I knew the basic ingredients so decided that I would wing it. This is what I came up with;
Ingredients:
- 1 pack of 12 pork sausages
- 1 or 2 Kabanos (diced)
- 2 cans of chopped plum tomatoes
- 1 tbsp of tomato puree
- 2 or 3 medium onions (chopped)
- 2 or 3 sticks of celery (chopped)
- 1 or 2 peppers (diced)
- 8 to 10 peeled new potatoes (2 cm dice)
- glug of olive oil
- 2-3 cloves of garlic (crushed)
- 1 chicken stock cube
- 1/2 vegetable stock cube
- 1/2 tsp salt & loads of freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 tsp dried Oregano
- 1/2 tsp dried Basil
- 1/2 tsp dried Rosemary
- 1/2 tsp dried Thyme
- 2 Bay Leaves
Method
- Heat the oil in a large flat bottomed pan
- add the onions, pepper, celery and garlic and soften for a couple of minutes
- add the sausages and start to brown them (they don't need to be cooked through)
- once the sausages have started to brown add the potatoes and cook for about five minutes
- add the seasoning, herbs and crumbled stock cubes. Mix in thoroughly
- add the chopped tomatoes, tomato puree and diced kabanos, mix in and bring to simmering point
- transfer the heated ingredients to a slow cooker and cook on "low" for 4-6 hours. Keep an eye on it and stir in additional water if it becomes too dry.
This was served with chunks of crusty bread and I can report it as a great success.
