      Brown the sausages and bacon in a frying pan for a few minutes. Place half the sausages and bacon in the bottom of a large, oven proof casserole

      Remove the lid for the last 30 minutes and dot the top layer with butter (this allows the top layer to colour and crisp up)

    You never brown the sausage or bacon, they are cooked in the liquid, give them a soft texture. Also creates a stock as the meat not sealed, you don't add chicken stock. I'm from Dublin, I have had coddle with fried sausages and bacon.

    OK, I live in Dublin and make my Grandmother's recipe so I speak with a bit of authority. Whilst each household has it's own recipe and some will include veggies other than spuds & onions (I do, I add celery/leek/carrot if I have them) you NEVER brown the sausage/bacon, it is supposed to be pale…

    Fail safe and so good for winter with cider instead of stock

    question

    When does the stock go in? It's not mentioned in the recipe......

    I put everything in the post at the same time, so it doesn't really matter when you add it!

    Highly recommend switching the chicken stock to cider, the apple and sugar works beautifully with Coddle. In honesty, and as a man bread and buttered in Dublin, I would argue that it's not Coddle without cider!
