Apple and Cranberry Gravy

A neighbour left me a batch of apples on my doorstep the other day. I was just cooking up some sausages for tea, so quickly googled and found a recipe to go with the sausages.

Apple & Cranberry Gravy

  • 6 extra lean (5% fat) sausages
  • 1 large red onion, sliced
  • 1 large sprig rosemary, leaves only
  • 3 Pink Lady apples, cut into wedges
  • 2 tbsp cranberry sauce
  • 2 tbsp wholegrain mustard
  • 1/2 pt vegetable stock
  • 2tsps cooking oil
  1. Grill the sausages.
  2. Meanwhile fry the onions in the oil until soft and golden.
  3. Add the rosemary and apples, and cook for 3-4mins till the apple starts to soften.
  4. Add the cranberry sauce, mustard and stock to the pan too, and stir.
  5. Bring to the boil and simmer uncovered for 10mins. Add a little flour, if needed, to thicken.
It went down a storm with my 2 year old, who polished everything off on his plate.
