Red Wine Deviled Sausages on potato mash



 Ingredients:


 2x 6pack or 1x big pack of sausages
 Brown onion
 Red onion
 Potatoes
 Brown sugar
 Cheap red wine
 A can of Watties Deviled Sausages sauce (easy as!)

 Optional:
 Mushrooms, frozen veges/peas/corn
 Nice steamed/boiled veges side etc
 Parsley or coriander for garnish

 Red Wine Deviled Sausages:
 1. Cook off the sausages in a pan with a bit of oil, there isn't much cooking once the sauce is done so make sure they are cooked to the core. Once cooked, take out of pan and cut into smaller pieces.
 2. Dice up onions and brown them off in the pan with a bit of oil. Once they brown a bit add a few splashes of red wine, about half a cup I'd say. Too much might kill it. Let it cook briefly.
 3. Re-add the cooked sausage pieces to the pan, empty one can of Watties Deviled Sausages sauce. Add a table spoon of brown sugar to counter the taste of the red wine just a bit. Let it simmer on low heat for another 5 mins and stir the sausages around a bit. They're done!
 4. Optional garnish with some chopped up fresh parsley or coriander for pro look.

 Mashed Potatoes:
 1. Pretty self explanatory, wash, peel and clean potatoes. Cut into smaller pieces for easy cooking. Bring a pot of water up to boil add potatoes, takes about 15mins to cook if the pieces are relatively small, just check by getting a fork and poking through a piece.
 2. Drain water once they are cooked, add milk, butter, salt to taste (more milk = more creamier, but not heaps). Using a fork or masher mash away. Chunky or smooth style up to you!

 Serving:
 Red wine deviled sausages served on top of a bed of generous mashed potatoes, mmm... don't forget to scull the rest of the wine after.

 Variations:
 Curried sausages - replace red wine ingredient with mild curry powder. If handy, add a couple of splashes of worcestershire sauce and/or tomato relish.
 Sausages w/vegies - finding it hard to do your 5+ a day? Add frozen vegies mix to the dish or even better a mixture of freshly cut chunky vegies such as cauliflower, broccoli!

When I was in SF I ate so much seafood! My favorite kind of food!
Not a lot of seafood in London. Really miss it. In Norway and Italia we eat a lot more of it.

I have been to all the continents exept australia.
The problem is that I have eaten so much nice food that can't be done in another countries. F.ex I haven't found same indian food I had in India. Not the same fish I had in north Africa. Italian food I know best since I am half italian, and it is not possible to find the cheeses and quality of veg here in London.

You are so lucky to live in a place where you eat a lot of seafood! I envy you! Is it like creol kitchen? I had crabs in SF with that taste, and it was delicious!

Slow cooked leg of lamb:






Slow-cooked Leg of Lamb with Garlic, Lemon & Rosemary (in the CrockPot!)

1 leg of lamb (that will fit in your CrockPot – if not, get the butcher to cut off the shank end) – with or without bone

1 lemon
 4-5 garlic cloves, sliced or crushed
 1 Tbsp. fresh rosemary, chopped
 1 Tbsp. olive oil
 1 tsp. coarse salt
 1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper

some wine, chicken or beef stock, tomato juice or water

On a chopping board, pat your lamb dry with paper towels. Finely grate about half the zest off the lemon and grind into a paste with the garlic, rosemary, oil, salt and pepper using a mortar and pestle. Rub the paste all over the lamb. If you like, let it sit on the countertop for half an hour or so, or refrigerate for a few hours or overnight.

Put it into the CrockPot. Add about half a cup of liquid. Squeeze the juice of the lemon overtop too. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours.
