Method

  1. Heat the oil in a deep frying pan and fry the sausages for 4-5 mins until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
  2. Cook the onion in the same pan for 5-6 mins until softened, adding a splash of water if it starts to catch. Add the chickpeas, tomato sauce and stock and bring to the boil. Return the sausages to the pan, lower the heat to a simmer and cook for 5-6 mins until the sausages are cooked through. Scatter the garlic, orange zest and parsley over the stew, then serve in shallow bowls with crusty bread on the side.

Make it for kids

If the kids aren't sure about the zesty herb topping, serve this separately in a bowl, so everyone can help themselves if they want it.

    Left the garlic out of the topping but my kids were happy with the zest and parsley on top. Really nice recipe for family tea.

    Really good, nutritious and speedy supper. Didn't use the topping though - didn't fancy raw garlic. Just sprinkled the parsley on top.

    We added more garlic and used some especially wonderful sausages and loved this, love the flexibility of it - just stick in your favourite herbs/spices to taste!

    A good recipe, but I came a cropper at the end by being distracted and zesting a whole large orange onto it at the same time as doing something else and as a result, can't really taste anything but orange. Maybe I'll leave that out next time!

    Lovely recipe, I added Leeks and made my own tomato sauce, as I don't like shop bought ones.

    Very hearty. I adapted this quite a lot. I used fresh chilli, paprika and peppers. I didn't use the topping (apart from the parsley) as suggested but put the garlic in with the rest of the ingredients to cook. I also used Toulouse sausages. If you like a good quality sausage it's also good with wild boar sausages :-)
