Sausage Hotpot Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a medium frying pan (one the sausages will fit in fairly snugly). Add the sausages and fry for 8-10 mins, turning them often. Turn the grill to high. Splash a couple of tablespoons of red wine into the pan if you are using it, then pour in the stock and stir in the caramelised red onions. Allow the mixture to bubble for 3-4 mins, so it thickens a little and turns into a rich gravy. Remove from the heat.
• Spread the potatoes so they roughly cover the sausages and gravy. Put the frying pan under the grill for about 8 mins until the potatoes turn crisp and golden. Serve while bubbling and hot - there is no need to add seasoning.

Steps:

• In a large casserole, fry the sausages until brown all over - about 10 mins.
• Add the tomato sauce, stirring well, then stir in the beans, treacle or sugar and mustard. Bring to the simmer, cover and cook for 30 mins. Great served with crusty bread or rice.

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large, heavy-based saucepan over medium-high heat. Add sausages. Cook, turning often, for 5 minutes or until browned. Remove sausages to a board. Thickly slice.
• Reduce heat to medium. Add remaining oil, onions and capsicum to pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 to 4 minutes or until soft. Add rice, tomatoes, stock and sausages. Stir to combine. Bring to the boil.
• Cover pan and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer for 10 minutes. Remove pan from heat. Set aside, covered, for 15 minutes (this allows rice to complete cooking). Season with salt and pepper. Spoon hotpot into serving bowls. Serve.
• To reheat hotpot, spoon into serving bowls. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons chicken stock and cover with damp paper towel. Microwave on MEDIUM (50%) for 3 to 4 minutes.
