Had my boyfriend come to stay for a few days and as he eats meat and i don't, i had to get rid of spare sausages before he went.. typed it into bbc Good Food and this little gem popped up. Quick, simple and delicious! I also tried it with quorn and it was good too! My boyfriend even asked for the recipe to take home! Nice one :)
Absolutely yummy! To increase the veg content I added peas and chickpeas, I used chicken stock as didn't have vegetable and added garlic purée. I put the sausages in the oven for 25mins at fan 200 and added all the ingredients straight into the pan and cooked for 1 hour 45 mins. It was amazing! Definately one to make on a regular basis. (Didn't make the garlic toasts, had on its own).
A brilliant, dead easy, chuck-it-all-in recipe. I too used much less onion than the recipe suggests and found the basil over powering first time round so drastically reduced it for the second go, which was perfect. I make it with mash and the great thing is there's no real need to add any extra veg as it's already packed full. A firm favourite.
I was making this for 2 people, so played around with the quantities a bit, using 6 sausages, 2 red onions, 1 yellow pepper, 1 tin tomatoes and 150ml of stock. I also added a tin of cannelini beans 10 mins from the end - a perfect one pot! There are extra veggies leftover, but not matter as having those another night with cous cous. Having read the other comments, I also had to make the garlic toasts and they were great!
I wasn't clear about the amount of sugar, with tomatoes and peppers a tbsp seemed too much used a tsp and it was lovely. A very easy recipe that was very very tasty - both of my girls 12 and 14 are a little fussy with new things and they loved it. Would recommend the toast for any appropriate occasion it was delicious - albeit I used more like 50 to 75 g of the cream cheese! All this is coming from a father on holiday who rarely cooks new things. Recommended.
Never had sausage casserole before but I am so down to try it out. Just using cheap-o ingredients http://bit.ly/student-recipes-sausage-casserole
