Method

  1. Squeeze 3 balls of meat from each sausage, then fry in the oil for 5 mins until golden. While they cook, put the potatoes on to boil for 10 mins until tender. Add the peppers to the pan, then fry for 4 mins more. Tip in the garlic and spices, fry for 1 min, then add the beans, tomatoes and sugar. Simmer for 5 mins until saucy and the meatballs are cooked.
  2. Drain the potatoes, then crush with a masher. Fold through the yogurt and chives, loosen with a splash of water, then serve with the chilli. Top with a dollop more yogurt and sprinkling of chives, if you like.

    I liked this recipe, however my OH seemed to like it a lot more, It was tasty and relatively easy to do but I found it quite watery and so cooked it for longer to make it slightly thicker. Did not make the potatoes but will try them as well next time.

    This little baby was easy to make and even easier to eat! I prepared it for my girlfriend Llinos and she really lapped it up! Clean plates all round. I need to treat Llinos right at all times and the tasty nature of this baby meal helped calm her temper tonight. Phew! She was especially pleased with the dishes' clever juxtaposition of potato and sausage balls, a fresh way of combining raw taste in real time. Major invention guys! WOW. Thank you bbc good food! This meal has calmed her and now I can relax (kind of).

    This was a very good family supper although I changed it a little. I made the sauce and served it with the sausages which I cooked separately. Also served the potatoes roasted and the yogurt with the chopped chives stirred into it to spoon on the side. Everyone enjoyed it.
