Sausage Stew

A couple of weeks ago, I pulled out two random sausages that had been in the freezer for quite some time to cook them up for dinner. Two sausages don’t go far on their own, but as a stew served with a side (I used polenta) it could feed 4 people. I just made the recipe up as I went along so the ingredients are a bit of a guestimate.

Ingredients

2 sausages

1 onion, chopped

1 clove garlic crushed

1 carrot, chopped

2 small zucchini, chopped

1 tsp thyme or oregano

1 tsp tomato paste

1 tin tomatoes, crushed

small handful of parsley, chopped

salt and pepper to taste

Method

Fry sausages until cooked through.
Add some oil to the pan and sauté onion and garlic. Add carrot and zucchini and brown lightly.
Add herbs, tomato paste and tomatoes and bring to the boil.
Slice the sausages thinly and add to the mix. Simmer until sauce has reduced and thickened. Season with salt and pepper.
Stir through parsley just before serving. Serve with a side.

Serves 2 – 4. This was a scrounge meal, so add whatever vegetables or meat that you have on hand.
