Method

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan set over a medium heat, tip in the sausages, then cook for 10 mins, turning every so often. Stir in the onions, then leave to cook for 5 mins more until the sausages are browned and the onions softened.
  2. Tip in the garlic, fennel seeds and grapes and cook for 5 more mins, stirring often, until the grapes are starting to soften. Pour over the vinegar and swirl around the pan. Cook for a few mins more until the onions are sticky and the sausages cooked through. Serve with soft polenta or mashed potato.

    This is a fine recipe, but I prefer it with a glass of red wine and no vinegar.

    Delicious! I used balsamic vinegar rather than red wine vinegar, with an extra splash of red wine.

    I thought it was great with the red wine vinegar - it added some acidity that balanced the sweetness of the grapes.

    Delicious way of doing something as basic as sausage and mash! I liked the grapes but next time I might substitute for little cherry tomatoes or peppers. I served with cheese & spring onion mash, and some fresh veg and it went down a treat! Will definitely make again!

    Excellent - really easy and very tasty. Grapes went really well with the sausages and also liked the red wine vinegar. Served with vegetables & new potatoes. Hit and recommended!
