Mix mince with parsley and s & p and shape into 12 balls.  Fry for 5 mins until brown.  Add onions, garlic, carrots and potatoes and 300ml/ 1/2 pt water to pan.  Bring to boil, cover and simmer for 15 mins.  Stir in paprika and passata and some more parsley and cook for a further 10-15 mins  until carrots and potatoes are cooked.

[/i]1 tbsp veg oil
6 good quality sausages
red wine
175ml/6fl oz veg stock

Fry sausages in a pan for 8-10 mins, Add splash of wine, stock and onions.  Allow to thicken 3-4 mins. Spread potatoes on top and grill for about 10 mins until crisps up.
(Not sure if you have a grill or not but this is yummy so thought I'd add it!)

6 sausages
6 potatoes sliced
350g/12oz leeks/broccoli/cabbage
1 tbsp horseradish (if you want it!)
100g/4oz mature cheddar grated

Heat half oil in a frying pan, fry sausages until browned.  Slice and set aside.  Add remaining oil, potatoes and leeks and cook about 15-20 mins until tender.  Add sausages and horseradish and reheat for a few mins.  Stir through cheese and serve.
