Description

This slow cooker sausage casserole is the perfect mid-week pick-me-up. Juicy sausages in a rich tomato and onion sauce. Ideal for cold winter nights.

The default recipe serves one.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 2 uncooked sausages (pork or beef)
  • 200g / 7oz tinned tomatoes
  • 1 clove garlic, crushed
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 60ml (1/4 cup) red wine
  • 120g / 4.2oz tinned butter beans
  • 1/2 white or brown onion, sliced
  • 2 tbsp plain flour

Instructions

  1. Heat the oil over medium-high heat in a large frying pan/skillet. Once hot add the sausages and cook for around 6-8 minutes until browned all over. Turn them every few minutes.
  2. While the sausages are cooking mix together the chopped tomatoes, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, red wine and thyme and mix. 
  3. Once the sausages are browned, place them in the slow cooker. Reduce the heat to medium and cook the onions for around 8 minutes, stirring often so they don’t burn. You do want them to caramelise (brown) a little and soften, however. 
  4. Scatter the flour over the onions and stir. Cook for a further minute before tipping the onion and flour mixture into the slow cooker.
  5. Pour the tomato mixture over the sausage and onion and tip over the butter beans. Stir everything together and then cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours. 

Notes

  1. If you are using fresh thyme instead of dried then use 1/2 tsp of fresh leaves per person, stripped from the stalks
  2. You can replace the red wine with chicken stock if you prefer
  3. If you are really short on time then you can skip pre-cooking the sausage and onion although the flavour won’t be as rich. If you do this then mix the flour with an equal amount of water and whisk until fully combined then stir into the slow cooker before cooking. 
  4. Leftovers can be frozen for up to 3 months. Defrost before reheating in the microwave or in the oven. You may need to add a splash of water to loosen the sauce if it is too thick.
