1 vegetable stock cube
8 -12 slices streaky bacon

Season with salt and pepper.
Add the cold water and lay the sausages on top.
Place the pan over a high heat and bring to a boil.
Dissolve the stock cube in the water.
Lower the heat once it comes to a boil, taking the water down to a simmer.
Cover and cook for 20 minutes.
Remove the lid, increase the heat and boil for 10 minutes.
