Description
This all-in-one hotpot brings together the flavours of honey, mint and wholegrain mustard in a sweet-and-savoury gravy for sausages, potatoes and carrots. This is delicious and family-friendly.
Ingredients
Spray oil
1 red onion, finely chopped
8 reduced-fat pork sausages, each cut into 6 pieces
2 garlic cloves, crushed
large handful mint leaves (about 20g/3/4 oz), finely chopped, plus extra to serve
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
1 litre (1 3/4 pints) hot beef stock
2 teaspoons wholegrain mustard
3 tablespoons tomato puree
450g (1 lb) baby potatoes, halved (or quartered if large)
300g (10 1/2 oz) carrots, peeled and cut into matchsticks
salt and pepper
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan (425°F), Gas Mark 7.
Spray a flameproof casserole dish with oil and fry the onion and sausage pieces over a high heat for 5 minutes, constantly stirring (don’t worry if the sausages break a bit, this will help thicken the gravy).
Add the garlic, mint, vinegar, honey and soy sauce to the pan and stir-fry for 2 minutes, coating the sausage and onion and reducing the liquid slightly. Pour in the hot stock, stir, then add the mustard and tomato purée and mix to create the gravy.
Add the potatoes and carrots, season with salt and pepper, bring to the boil, then transfer to the middle shelf of the oven (uncovered) and cook for 40 minutes.
Give everything in the pot a thorough stir, then serve with mint scattered over the top.
