    This made a good dinner on a winter's day. The wine sauce was a little too acidic to start with so I added a tsp of sugar and this seemed to do the trick and the flavour was more balanced.

    I used homemade pork & fennel sausages. I doubled the onions & cooked them with a good pinch of sugar& salt & added splash of balsamic vinegar with the wine.
