Ingredients

5 total
  • 1 tbsp salted butter
  • 4 shallots, diced
  • 6 cumberland sausages
  • 150g cooked chestnuts, diced or whole
  • 100g dried soft apricots, diced or whole

Method

3 steps

  1. Step 1

    Tip the butter and shallots into a heavy-based pan over a medium heat and cook for a few mins until the shallots begin to soften.

  2. Step 2

    Remove the skin from the sausage and add the meat to the pan. Reduce the heat and cook for 30-45 mins, until cooked through and tender. Use a wooden spoon to break up the meat and stir regularly to prevent sticking.

  3. Step 3

    Tip in the chestnuts and apricots then cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 mins until piping hot. Transfer to a serving dish and serve.
