Method
- Put the oil in a flameproof casserole (about 30cm across) and set over a medium heat. Fry the sausages for 5-8 minutes or so, turning often, until golden all over. Remove and set aside on a plate. Add the red onions, fry for 1-2 minutes, then add the thyme and 100ml cold water. Cook until the onions are soft but still holding together.
- Pour in the wine and beef stock, then whisk in the flour. Bring back to a simmer, then add the sausages and cook for around 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened. Add the spring greens for the final 5 minutes. Just before you’re ready to serve, add a glug more red wine.
- Meanwhile cook the potatoes in a large pan of boiling water for 15-20 minutes or until tender, adding the peas for the last 4 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool slightly. Mash the potatoes and peas, season with salt and pepper, then top with the casserole.
