1 tsp olive oil

700g (1.5 lbs) chicken sausages

1 large onion, chopped

15g garlic, minced

2 carrots, peeled and sliced into rounds

25g corn flour

Method

Pre-cook the sausages: Start by browning the chicken sausages in a frying pan over medium-high heat. You're not trying to cook them through, just get a nice colour on them. Once browned, place the sausages in your slow cooker.

In the same pan, add a little more oil if necessary, then add the chopped onion.Sauté until the onions become translucent, then add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds more. Add this to the slow cooker.

Now add the carrots, corn flour, chopped tomatoes, stock, Worcestershire sauce, tomato puree and mixed herbs to the slow cooker.

Stir everything to combine and make sure the sausages are submerged in the liqud. 

Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-7 hours or on medium for 4-5 hours.

Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley and serve with warm crusty bread or mashed potatoes for a comforting meal.
