Serve it over cooked pasta, in baked potatoes, or with crusty bread. Recipe adapted from https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/slow-cooker-sausage-casserole
Makes 4 servings
Ingredients: 2 red onions, peeled and finely chopped, 1 celery stick, washed and finely chopped, 2 tablespoons (30 ml) cooking oil, 4 carrots, peeled and chunked, 12 chipolatas, cut into halves, 1 large sweet potato, peeled and cut into chunks, 13 oz (400 g) tin tomatoes, 1 tablespoon (15 ml) tomato purée, 1 fresh thyme sprig, 1 fresh rosemary sprig, 1 beef stock cube
Instructions: In a large nonstick skillet, heat the cooking oil over medium-high heat. Add chopped onions and celery and fry, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are softened, for about 5 minutes. Remove cooked vegetables from the skillet and transfer to the slow cooker. Add carrots to the hot oil and fry, stirring occasionally, then remove from the skillet and transfer to the pot.
Using the same skillet, brown the sausages all over. Remove from the pan and transfer to the slow cooker. Add sweet potato and tomatoes.
Put the tomato purée in a frying pan, then pour in 1 cup (250 ml) of boiling water. Swirl everything around to pick up every last bit of flavor, then pour the tomato mixture into the slow cooker. Add herbs, and beef cube. Season with black pepper and stir well.
Cover slow cooker and cook on low-heat setting for 8 hours or until vegetables are cooked through.
Turn off the cooker and open the lid. Season sausage casserole with salt. Stir well. Remove the sausage mixture from the pot and transfer it to serving plates. Serve hot.
