Ingredients
- 4 potatoes large
- 4 carrots
- 8 sausages good-quality
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 onion chopped
- 1 garlic clove crushed
- 1 tsp paprika
- 400 g can chopped tomatoes
- 400 g white beans Can, drained, any kind will work, but I usually use Haricot or Borlotti
- 400 ml vegetable stock a stock cube is OK
- 1-2 bay leaves
DISCLAIMER
I recommend using the Metric measurements (instead of cups & spoons) for more accuracy and better results.
Instructions
- Turn the oven to 180°C/fan160°C/gas 4. Peel the potatoes and carefully cut them in half, then into quarters. Peel the carrots and cut each carrot into about 4 or 5 even pieces.
- Prick the sausages all over with a fork – this helps the fat to run out of the sausages, so that they don’t split open as they cook. Heat the olive oil in a heavy-based casserole and fry the sausages, turning often, until lightly golden all over – this should take about 10 minutes. Remove the sausages from the pan and put them on a plate.
- Add the chopped onion to the casserole (there will still be some oil in the pan from the sausages) and continue to cook over a low heat for 5-10 minutes, until the onion is slightly soft. Add the garlic and paprika and cook for another minute.
- Add the chopped potatoes and carrots and stir everything around in the casserole so that the vegetables are coated with the oil.
- Add the tomatoes, beans and stock and the bay leaves. Bring to a gentle simmer, Return the sausages to the pot.
- Carefully put the casserole into the oven. Cook for 45 minutes, until the potatoes are cooked through, and serve.
It's an easy matter to scale this recipe up or down depending on the number of people eating. It's especially go if cooking for just 1 or 2 persons.
