Steps:

  • Halve onions and slice thinly
  • Fry gently in a splash of oil with the fennel seeds and crushed garlic for 5 mins
  • Add pricked sausages - I like to twist my sausages in the middle so each one becomes two smalled fatter ones!
  • The idea is to brown the sausages all over whilst they absorb some of the flavour of the fennel etc
  • Peel and slice the potatoes into long wedges
  • Add potatoes, zest and juice of 2 lemons and a cupful of water, stir to coat - don't be tempted to add too much water at this stage, add 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Transfer to casserole if necessary (I use a cast iron one that goes on the hob too) and cook at 180C(fan) 200C(standard)gas6 for about 45 mins. Check occasionally and stir gently to get all potatoes in liquid - add a bit more if needed.
  • Once potatoes are tender adjust seasoning, stir in parsley if needed and serve with green salad or veg of choice
