Ingredients
  

  • 6 pork sausages
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 3 celery sticks, sliced
  • 2 red peppers capsicums, seeded and cut into small chunks
  • ½ tsp crushed dried chillies
  • 250 g long-grain rice (I used brown rice and needed to cook it longer)
  • 400 g jar crushed tomatoes with onion and garlic
  • 425 ml hot chicken or vegetable stock
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce, optional
  • Salt and pepper
  • 2 Tbsp chopped fresh flat parsley, optional

Instructions
 

  • Pre-heat the grill. Put the sausages onto a baking sheet and grill for about 15-20 minutes, turning once, until brown. Alternatively, pan-fry the sausages in oil, as I did.
  • Heat the olive oil in a deep frying pan. Add the celery and peppers and fry for 2-3 minutes to soften. Add the crushed chillies and the rice and cook, stirring, for 1 minute, before adding the tomatoes, the hot stock, Worcestershire sauce and salt and pepper. Simmer over a medium heat for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally until nearly all the liquid has been absorbed and the rice is tender.
  • When the sausages are cooked, cut them into chunks and stir into the rice. Sprinkle with parsley and serve. Great with pita bread and salad.
