Pork Sausages
While we were at the Abbey Medieval Festival, we saw a pot full of a delicious smelling sausage stew. The man told me very briefly how he made it and I decided to attempt to make it myself.
[ Serves: 4 | Time: 60 Minutes | Cost: $8 ]

500 gm pork sausages
1 bottle apple cider
1 green apple, peeled and diced
1 onion, peeled and diced
1 teaspoon thyme
1 teaspoon rosemary
Method
- Place the sausages in a pot with enough water to cover. Boil for 5 minutes until cooked.
- Add the onion, apple, herbs and enough cider to cover. Reduce the heat and simmer gently for about 30 minutes.
- Serve with hot crusty bread and a glass of cider.
Dinner is served
Observations
- To me, this was just really sweet. I couldn’t decide if I was eating a dessert or a main. Next time I make this, I’ll use some fennel seeds or star anise to cut through the sweetness. I am really undecided whether nor not I enjoyed it, although I did eat my whole bowl full!
- Diabetic Note: There is to be scared of here, diabetics. I didn’t have any problems at all with this meal.
- Ethical Note: Hmm, home-made sourdough with organic pork. Win win!

I guess you may have used a sweet cider Rhianna? They also make draught (like beer) and dry which is not sweet at all. So long as it was tasty that is all that matters
