Bacon Wrapped Sausage Casserole With Apple Tomato Sauce


From a popular collection of recipes originally published in an afrikaans magazine, huisgenoot. The recipe calls for a coarse south african sausage, boerewors, which is generally made up of 2/3 beef, 1/3 pork, plus spices, etc., but i use normal pork sausages for this. a lovely casserole, i serve it with dauphinoise potatoes.

Steps


Roll each sausage in 1 or two rashers of bacon and secure with a toothpick.
Saut the apples and onions in half the oil.
Spoon them into an ovenproof dish with a lid.
Arrange the sausages on top.
Braise the tomatoes and green pepper in the remaining oil , sprinkle the flour over , and cook for about three minutes.
Add the stock and flavourings and cook for a further three minutes.
Spoon the tomato sauce over the sausage , cover with the lid , and bake for 45 minutes in a preheated oven at 180c.
