Cooking Instructions for making One pot sausage and fennel rice

1

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Using an oven proof pan / casserole pot with a lid, fry the sausages until cooked. Set aside to cool.

2

In the same pan, use the sausage fat to fry the onions over a medium / low heat until soft. Add the garlic, chilli, fennel and peppers and cook until soft.

3

Next add the rice and coat in the mixture. Turn up the heat and add the white wine until reduced. Dice the cooked sausages and add to the mixture with the chopped tomatoes, stock and seasoning.

4

Put the lid on and cook in the oven for 15 minutes. After 15 check the rice and stir in half the lemon zest (if it’s really dry you might want to add some more stock). Return to the oven for another 10 minutes. Then remove the lid and cook for a final 5 minutes.

5

Once cooked, stir through the remaining lemon zest, lemon juice and parsley. Serve with some freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
