Sausage and Bean Casserole

Heat vegetable oil in a large deep pan or casserole and brown sausage all over, about 8 minutes. Lift out and cut each in half.

Cook onion and bell pepper in the fat for 6 minutes until soft, then add garlic, smoked paprika and tomato paste for 1 minute.

Add crushed tomatoes, chicken broth, cannellini beans, worcestershire sauce, thyme and browned sausages to spiced vegetables. Simmer uncovered, stirring now and then, until thick and the sausages are cooked through (71 C).

Season sausage casserole with salt, scatter with parsley and serve with mash, rice or bread.
