Method

  • step 1

    Heat the oil in a large pan. Add the sausages, cook for a few mins until browned all over, then transfer to a plate. Tip the onion and fennel into the pan and cook for 10-15 mins until nice and soft, then add the garlic, half the chilli and the fennel seeds. Cook for a few mins more, moving everything around the pan now and then, to prevent the garlic from burning.

  • step 2

    Stir the flour into the vegetables, and cook for 1 min. Pour in the wine, let it bubble for 1 min, give everything a good stir, then add the stock and return the sausages to the pan, seasoning well. Cover, then gently simmer for 30 mins.

  • step 3

    Add the green beans, broad beans and peas, then cook, uncovered, for 2 mins more. Stir in the crème fraîche, lemon zest and juice, and herbs. Add a little more salt and pepper if it needs it, sprinkle with the chilli, then serve with plenty of bread for soaking up the juices.

I didn't put in fennel, and honestly it tasted AMAZING. Then the lemon and creme fraiche ruined it. Would definetly make again but without those two (maybe ceme friache no lemon). This dish is not meant to pair with lemon that's for sure.

Made this pretty much as-is. Sausages and peas are two of my toddler’s favorite foods, so I thought I’d give this a whirl. I appreciate that this was actually as easy to put together as advertised, and while I had to leave out the chillis and the lemon because those are two flavors my toddler…

This was a 10/10 recipe for me. We used turkey sausages and two small green chillies in the sauce and I left out the lemon zest at the end. Served with rice as a previous commenter had suggested. So light and packed with vegetables.

This didn’t do it for me because citrusy sausages are weird - sorry. It wasn’t unpleasant, but it was odd. The combo of vegetables is great, though, so I’d make it again and try using mustard instead of any lemon.

Did you cook the chicken beforehand ? Only I want to use chicken instead of sausage but not sure if I should cook the chicken first.

Made this with chicken rather than sausages, and it was really good! Served with some rice.
