Ingredients
8 total- 800 g of pork sausages
- 200 g of smoked lardons
- 8 shallots
- 200 g of green celery hearts, cut into chunks
- 500 g of cherry tomatoes
- 25 g of basil
- 150 ml of vegetable stock

Method
3 stepsStep 1
Preheat the oven to 180ºC, gas mark 4. Heat the oil over a medium heat in a large, wide flameproof roasting tin or casserole dish.
Step 2
Cook the sausages in the tin or casserole dish for 5-10 minutes, turning regularly, until lightly browned all over. Remove the sausages and set aside on a plate. Return the tin to the heat and add the shallots, bacon and celery. Cook for a further 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the celery and shallots are just beginning to soften.
Step 3
Return the sausages to the casserole and stir in the tomatoes and stock. Place in the oven and cook for 30-40 minutes, stirring halfway through cooking if necessary, until the vegetables have softened. Roughly tear the basil and stir in. Serve with plenty of crusty white bread.
