Sausage and apple casserole

This goes with potatoes, veg, over rice, whatever you fancy.

1 pack of pork and apple sausages (I used Supreme Sausages Wild Boar and Apple but any will do)
2-3 rashers of bacon
2 smallish Bramley apples
1 heart of celery
1 large leek
1 courgette
1 green pepper
1 onion
Small sprinkle of sugar (if necessary - the apples might be super sharp)
scant teaspoon dried sage
small squidge of garlic

Start by cooking the sausages, slowly, in a pan, turning often, don't let them burn.

While that's doing prep the veg and apples and get them ready to go. Chop the bacon up into little slivers.

When the sausages are done, it goes like this.

Take the sausages out and put to one side. Pop the bacon into the pan, and let it crisp up a bit. Then add the onion and celery and sweat down. Add the garlic, followed by the other vegetables. Allow them to sweat with the lid on for a few minutes. Then add the apples and sage and finally the now-cut-up sausages. Lid on, job done.

Variations:

Add a tin of butter beans or haricot beans
Add stock and lentils and eat as is
Stuff squash with it
Eat it over baked potatoes
Eat it with rice...whatever you like.
