Method
Preheat oven 180c fan/ 200c.
Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil on high in a deep sided oven proof pan (our favourite is a cast iron). Brown sausages for 5 mins before adding garlic, ginger, onion & carrots. Toss and brown the veggies for another 5 mins.
Meanwhile mix passata, berbere seasoning & beef stock together and add to the pan.
Give everything a good stir around, season and bring to a boil before transferring to the oven for 30-35mins.
Before serving add lemon juice & zest and mix through. Top with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
Hints & tips
Sausages - Pork or Lamb sausages could also be used in this dish.
Berbere seasoning - This seasoning is warm & peppery. If you don’t like too much heat only use 1 tbsp when cooking this dish or serve natural yogurt along side it.
Serving suggestion - Lemon & parsley cous cous. Cooked cous cous per packet instructions, add zest & juice of 1 lemon & mix chopped parsley through. Season before serving.
