Ingredients

1 tbsp olive oil

8 good-quality pork sausages (Toulouse are great for this dish)

2 leeks , trimmed and thinly sliced

1 carrot , roughly chopped

2 slices day-old white or brown bread , whizzed into breadcrumbs

1 tbsp chopped sage , plus a little extra

1 garlic clove , crushed

200ml beef stock

400g can chopped tomatoes

Method

Heat the oil in a large ovenproof pan, add the sausages and brown for few mins. Remove from the pan. Add the leeks and carrot and gently soften for 10 mins.

Mix the breadcrumbs with a little sage. Heat grill to medium. Add 1 tbsp sage and the garlic to the pan. Cook for 1 min, then add the stock and tomatoes. Tuck in the sausages.
