I was set a task one Friday evening a few weeks ago. It had been a long week at work and after the gym I went for a wander around the supermarket - it was my turn to sort out dinner. I thought about making something with sausages, only my brother was home for the weekend and he's a vegetarian, he doesn't even eat eggs, so Quorn sausages were out of the question. Unperturbed, I diligently serched the frozen isles and found the completely vegetarian sausages - dinner sorted: sausages, baked beans and mash! But, that week I had just collected the fresh batches of masala for tasting and I wanted to try...
I decided to make a vegetarian sausage and bean casserole - it was FABULOUS! The recipe is below, and of course you can make it using whatever sausages you like. If you use meat sausages you might want to use the Masala Blend for meat instead, the spicier flavour profile will complement the stronger flavour of the meat beautifully.
Spice Fusions Vegetarian Sausage & Bean Casserole
Ingrdients (Serves 4)
8 Vegetarian sausages
1 Medium onion finely sliced
1 Tin of Baked Beans
400ml Hot water
2 x 20g Pot Shots Masala Blend for Vegetables
You will also need: a casserole dish and a measuring jug
Method
1. Cook the sausages according to the instructions on the packet. (If you did not use the oven to cook your sausages then preheat the oven at 180 degrees C, gas mark 4).
2. In a measuring jug, measure out 400ml hot water, add the tin of baked beans and the Masala Blend. Stir together.
3. Spread half the onion on the bottom of your casserole dish. Add the cooked sausages and the spread the rest of the onion evenly over the sausages. Pour the beans and masala casserole mix over the saugaes and onions.
4. Place the casserole dish in the middle of the oven and cook at 200 degrees C, gas mark 6, for 30 minutes.
I served the casserole with fine green beans and a carrot and swede mash.
Try it and let me know what you think. I guarantee even the meat eaters amongst you will love this dish!
