Pork

Sausage, Peppers and Onions

Fair food at home. Brown the sausages first, because pale boiled sausage is not something anyone wants to look at.

What goes in

• 2 1/2 lb Italian sausages, sweet or hot
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 3 bell peppers, red, yellow and green, sliced thick
• 2 yellow onions, sliced thick
• 5 cloves garlic, sliced
• 14 oz crushed tomatoes
• 1/2 cup chicken broth
• 2 tsp dried oregano · 1 tsp dried basil · 1/2 tsp chilli flakes
• 1 1/2 tsp salt · 1 tsp black pepper

Stir in at the end

• 6 hoagie rolls, split and toasted
• grated provolone, to serve

How to make it

1. Brown the sausages in the hot oil, turning, about 8 minutes. They do not need to cook through.
2. Put the peppers, onions and garlic in the pot and sit the sausages on top.
3. Stir the crushed tomatoes, broth, oregano, basil, chilli flakes, salt and pepper together and pour it over. Lid on.
4. Low 5 hours or high 3 hours.
5. Lid off the last 30 minutes to reduce the sauce, or it will soak the rolls.
6. Pile into toasted hoagie rolls with provolone over the top.
