Preparation
Step 1
Pre-heat the oven to 170C (fan).
Step 2
Heat some olive oil in a pan on the hob on a medium heat (use a pan which can also be transferred to the oven).
Step 3
Add the onion and garlic and heat until soft, before adding the pepper and courgette. Cook together for around 5 minutes.
Step 4
Pour in the tin of tomatoes and half tin of chickpeas.
Step 5
Add the paprika, coriander and cumin with a pinch of salt and pepper, and stir everything together. Cook for another 5 minutes.
Step 6
Add the sausages and pancetta, making sure they’re covered in the sauce and not just placed on the top, and put into the oven for 30 minutes.
Step 7
While the casserole is in the oven, boil the garden peas in a pan and drain the water.
Step 8
Add the mint into the pan with the peas, with a squeeze of lemon juice, and salt and pepper. And give it a good mashing!
Step 9
You’re then ready to serve everything up! I think next time I would probably brown the sausages first in a pan, to give them a bit more colour.
