Cooking Time 1 1/2 hours

Ingredients

1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, crushed
2 chillies, seeded and chopped
Olive oil, for frying
500 - 750 g A mix of beef, pork, chicken or smoked sausages, quartered
1 T fresh basil, chopped
1 T fresh parsley, chopped
2 - 4 potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks

Preheat the oven to 180°C.

In a deep, heavy based ovenproof casserole dish, fry the onion, garlic and chillies in a little olive oil. Once soft, add the sausages.

Cook for a few minutes then add all the other ingredients – do not add additional water with the stock cubes, crumble them in. Add the extra vegetables, if using.

Cover and bake for 1 1/2 hours. In the last 30 minutes of cooking time, check the liquid level, as you may need to add boiling water.

Check the seasoning and serve scattered with fresh herbs.
