Jambalaya is a popular dish hailing from Louisiana in the southern United States. Of Spanish, West African and French influence, it can be a great winter warmer.

Method:

• Heat the oil in a large saucepan and cook the sausages over a medium heat until browned.
• Remove from the pan and keep to one side. When cool enough to handle, cut each sausage in half.
• Meanwhile, add the onion, garlic, chilli powder, turmeric and rice to the pan and cook until the rice is opaque.
• Add the stock, chopped tomatoes and some black pepper. Bring to the boil, cover and simmer for 20 minutes.
• Add the sausages and the remaining ingredients and continue to cook, uncovered, for a further 10 minutes or until the liquid is absorbed.
• Sprinkle with the green tops of the spring onions before serving.
