Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tps sunflower oil
  • 8 good quality pork sausages
  • 100 g 1 large chopped onion
  • 100 g 1 diced red pepper
  • 400 g can of mixed beans drained
  • 400 g can chopped tomatoes
  • 100 g 2 large carrots, diced
  • 2 sprigs fresh thyme
  • 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
  • 150 ml red wine
  • 1 tsp sugar

Equipment

  • Tefal Cook 4 Me or
  • Pressure Cooker or
  • Slow Cooker

Method
 

  1. Pour the oil into the Cook4Me, if using, otherwise heat in a large saucepan
  2. Brown the sausages for a few minutes, or follow the instructions on the Cook4Me
  3. Add the onion and pepper and brown until softened
  4. Add all the remaining ingredients. In the Cook4Me, this dish will cook for 9 minutes and be ready to serve with some rice, noodles, yummy roast potatoes, or a chunk of crusty bread. So pour yourself a glass of wine (squash if you're under 18) and set the table!
  5. In the saucepan, cover and simmer for around 20 minutes, until thickened and ready to serve.
  6. Season and serve straight away.

Notes

If you don't have the Tefal Cook4Me, you could use a pressure cooker in a similar way, or cook for 5-8 hours in your usual slow cooker.
