This is based on a Weight Watchers recipe that’s easy to cook, healthy and yummy, and I’ve added cabbage and baby potatoes to make it a bit more filling. It’s a great one for a chilly winter evening, and works great in the slow cooker!
At the bottom of the recipe are a series of options and alternatives should you need them, including vegan, low FODMAP and hack to make the recipe easier.

In a large frying pan fry, cabbage, potatoes, courgettes and carrots in oil. Fry over a high heat for 5-6 minutes until lightly browned. Add a little water if necessary to prevent sticking.

Cover and simmer for 10minutes.
Add the beans and sliced sausages and stir through, blend the cornflour with the water and add to the pan.
Bring to the boil, stirring, until the sauce thickens a little.

For a vegan option, use vegan sausages.
The beans and sausages containing garlic, onion and gluten make this high FODMAP. Sorry!
Happily, chopping is minimal and all the vegetables are fairly soft and quick to prepare.
