Heat a little olive oil
in a pan and brown the sausages all over. Take out of the
pan, then add the bacon and cook until crisp, then
scoop out.
-
Add the onions and cook until
soft and golden. Add the fennel seeds and cook for a
minute, then add the red wine and cook until reduced by
half. Put the sausages and bacon back in the pan, then add
the rosemary, tomatoes and chicken stock. Simmer for 20
mins, or until reduced slightly and the sausages are
cooked.

Meanwhile, if serving with
mash, peel the potatoes and cook in boiling water for 20
minutes, then mash or rice the potatoes. Stir through the
butter until the mixture is smooth.
