Hampshire Goose.

Serves 4.

4 Potatoes
4 Onions
4 Apples
Sage

Peel and slice the vegetables and apples.

Layer the potato into a greased casserole dish and over this layer slices of the apple and onion and a sprinkle of sage. Continue in layers till you've used up half the vegetable then place the sausages in a line down the middle of dish. Continue with the layers of potato, onion and apple, finally ending in a layer of potato.

Add the stock to just below the last layer of potato.

Cook at 180c (350f, gas 4) for 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and top with the grated cheese and cook for a further five minutes.

Have no idea why it's called Hampshire Goose - it just is!

OK. You do have frozen mash. If you have some tinned tomatoes, I can do you ...

SAUSAGES IN TOMATO SAUCE WITH MASHED POTATO

This dish is based on one of one of Aldo Zilli’s in-flight meals for Thomson Fly.

Serves 2

INGREDIENTS
2 cloves of garlic
2 onions
375g of old potatoes
250ml of water
¼ of a teaspoon of salt
2 tablespoons of olive oil
4 sausages
½ a tablespoon of butter
½ a tablespoon of milk
400g tin of plum tomatoes*
140g tin of tomato puree
2 teaspoons of basil
Ground pepper to taste

METHOD

Peel the garlic and chop it into tiny pieces. Peel the onions and chop them into tiny pieces. Peel the potatoes and chop them into quarters.

Put the water and salt into a saucepan on a medium heat. Add the potatoes. Bring to the boil, then turn down the heat until it is just boiling (simmering). Put the lid on the saucepan and cook for 20 to 25 minutes until soft. Check the water level from time to time and top up if it starts to dry out.

Put the oil into a frying pan on a medium heat. Add the garlic, onion and sausages. Fry the garlic, onion and sausages for about 2 minutes. Stir frequently to stop it sticking.

Open the tin of tomatoes. Put the juice into the pan. Chop the tomatoes while they are still in the can (it’s easier than chasing them around the pan).

Put the chopped tomatoes into the pan. Add the tomato puree and basil. Continue to cook, stirring as the mixture boils. Season with the pepper. Continue to cook, stirring as the mixture boils, until the sauce has reduced and the sausages are thoroughly cooked.

Drain the potatoes and mash with the butter and milk until it is smooth and lump free.

Season with the pepper.

* Plum tomatoes can be used either whole or chopped. It is difficult to stick chopped tomatoes back together again if you need to use them whole.

i think if you could get some egg and milk, then it would help with recipes

i find the easiest way to eek out sausages is to put them in toad in the hole - but chop each sausage into 4 pieces, and make individual ones in a yorkshire pudding tin, rather than just one large toad in the hole

i dont know about anyone else, but if im only given one whole sausage and some yorkshire pudding, i feel a bit more hard done by, than if i had one sausage cut into 4 pieces and hidden in the yorkshire

Fry an onion till soft, chop up the sausages. Add two to three tins of any beans,(Baked, kidney etc) a dash of worcester sauce, and a dessertspoon of syrup or honey. Crumble up a stock cube, add enough water to cover and bake for half an hour. My kids love it!

I do mini toad in the holes in a bun tray if I want to stretch sausages - normally chop one sausage into five of six small bits - each bun tray well gets 3 or so little bits, add some sliced onion and pour on the batter. OH can only eat 3 maximum (1.5 sausages) and it doesn't look stingy I just do plain ones for me as I can do without the meat

Pretty obvious really, but you could aways cut the sausages in half lengthways, so that they look like twice as many sausages above the batter!
