  I threw a parsnip in with this as it needed using up - worked really well.

  I used a sweet potatoe instead of normal potatoes it worked out well. I also put more stock in than suggested and cooked for longer to get softer veg.

  I added parsnip, and used less sausage (as that is all I had). Used a bit more stock than suggested. Looked a little bland but tasted really good - and my five year old daughter enjoyed it (apart from the potatoes, which she hates). I doubled the quantites for both of us but think there was quite a lot of food, could reduce the amount of vegetables if needs be. I used the left overs today, I popped them in the oven to reheat with some olive oil and parsley, and canned aduki beans for ten minutes.

  It needed longer on the hob for the veg to be soft enough. It was lacking a little something and a good shake of worcester sauce helped. We didn't find that the veg caramalised, particularly after such a short cooking time.

  I only tried this to use up some swede I had and wasn't expecting great things, but it was surprisingly good. I used more stock, and added a splash of worcester sauce and a dollop of ketchup, then used cornflour at the end, although next time, I might leave it runnier and mop it up with a slice of bread!

  Very easy and useful if you cook for one although it is quite a large portion. I also tried it with sweet potato and parsnips which was very good.

  Great recipe for one. I added a little brown suger to caramelise the veg. A fab way of using up sausages.

  I had to cook the sausages first, as the first time i tried it they weren't fully cooked. I also added a parsnip just because i like them but i needed a lot more stock because i cooked it longer to really soften and cook the veg. I took everything out the pan with a slotted spoon, mixed a little flour with the leftover stock, topped it up with a little more and made a lovely thick gravy. overall it's great, it just needed a few tweaks to suit my family but i've made it loads of times when i don't want to spend ages in the kitchen.

  Nice recipe and good way to use up all your left over veg! As others have already suggested I added a parsnip which worked well. I added a bit extra stock as well and let the veggies cook for a little bit longer so they were really nice and soft.

  This was delicious. The only problem was that I left the heat on too high so because there is only a very small amount of liquid, the vegetables burned to the pan as opposed to caramelising! I would have given it five stars if there were more stock used, as then it would not have burned. Also, I chopped the potatoes into small rather than big chunks.

  'A tasty, quick, cheap and - dare we say - healthy meal solution for students' Tasty?... yes Quick?... yes Cheap?... yes Healthy?... I'm not so sure... 881 kcalories, fat 52 g, saturated fat 16g, I don't think that's very healthy really. Look at it this way, by eating THREE MCDONALDS CHEESEBURGERS, you would be taking in 885 kcalories, 36g of fat, and 18g of saturated fat. (http://www.mcdonalds.co.uk/food/nutrition/nutrition-counter.mcd) So therefore 3 McDonalds cheeseburgers contain only 4 more calories, 16g less fat, and only 2g more of saturated fat. sausage and root veg stovie is a really yummy autumn dinner but healthy? I'm not so sure.

  881 calories for a main meal of the day isn't exactly belt-busting considering a female adults recommmended calorie intake is 2,000! A great easy to make meal, a firm favourite once term time starts.
