Go on it's time to trick or treat yourself ! PEAS, SAUSAGES AND NEW POTATO MASH Serves 4 750g new potatoes, washed and scrubbed 30g butter for potatoes 2 tbsp rapeseed oil 8 good quality pork sausages 250g tub of creme fraiche (full or low fat) 100ml vegetable stock 250g frozen peas 1 bunch of spring onions, trimmed and diced 1 tsp cornflower mixed with a little cold water to a thick paste, to thicken stock Small bunch of chives, chopped Pinch of nutmeg for potatoes (optional) Sea salt and black pepper Method Cut the potatoes into chunks and add to a large pan of boiling salted water. Simmer the potatoes, for 15-20 minutes or until tender, drain, add the butter, return to the pan and set aside. Meanwhile heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a frying pan and cook the sausages on a medium heat, for 10-15 minutes, turning, until browned and cooked through. Remove from the pan and keep warm. Clean the sausage pan, return to the heat, add the creme fraiche, stock and peas, stir and bring to the boil. Cook for 3-4 minutes, until the stock has reduced slightly. Add half the spring onions and thicken the sauce using the cornflower. Season with sea salt and black pepper and remove from the heat. Roughly crush the new potatoes with a masher, add the remaining onions, oil, chives and season and gently mix. Divide the potatoes between four plates, top each portion with two sausages and spoon over the pea sauce. FORGET AN APPLE A DAY, IT'S TIME FOR PEAS! Just one serving of freshly frozen garden peas and petit pois contains as much vitamin C as two large apples, more fibre than a slice of wholemeal bread, more thiamine than a pint of whole milk.
