Sausages with white beans and radicchio

For a simple but elegant French dinner ready in under 30 minutes, this rustic pork sausage dish delivers big flavour with very little effort. Canned cannellini beans cut down on cook time and the radicchio adds a pleasing bitterness to balance the richness of the sausages.

Ingredients

  • 6 good-quality pork sausages
  • ¼ cup (60 ml) olive oil, plus extra to drizzle when serving
  • 1 brown onion, finely chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
  • ½ head radicchio, roughly chopped
  • 2 x 400 g tins cannellini beans, drained, rinsed
  • 1 fresh bay leaf
  • 1 rosemary sprig
  • 1 lemon, rind peeled and juiced
  • 1 tsp chicken stock powder (use a gluten-free powder if you to make this dish gluten-free)
  • Salt and black pepper
  • 1 tbsp finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
  • Finely grated parmesan cheese, to serve

Instructions

  1. Heat a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the sausages and a drizzle of the ¼ cup of olive oil. Cook, turning the sausages occasionally with tongs, until browned and cooked through. Remove to a plate.
  2. Add the remaining olive oil to the pan, then add the onion and garlic. Cook, stirring, until fragrant and starting to brown. Add the radicchio and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until lightly browned. Add the drained cannellini beans, bay leaf, rosemary and peeled lemon rind, followed by the chicken stock powder and 1 cup of water. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5-6 minutes, then stir through the lemon juice. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  3. Spoon the beans onto a large serving plate and top with the sausages. Drizzle with a little extra olive oil and sprinkle with the parsley and parmesan cheese and serve.
