Ingredients

8 thick beef sausages (1.2kg)

2 x 400g cans diced tomatoes

200 gram drained marinated antipasto vegetables

400 gram can cannellini beans, rinsed, drained

1/2 cup loosely packed fresh baby basil leaves

Method

1.Cook sausages in heated oiled large saucepan until browned. Remove from pan; cut in half lengthways.

2.Add undrained tomatoes and ⅓ cup (80ml) water to same pan; bring to the boil. Return sausages to pan with antipasto vegetables; simmer, covered, 15 minutes.

3.Add beans to pan; simmer, uncovered, about 10 minutes or until thickened slightly.

4.Remove from heat, stir in half the basil; serve topped with remaining basil.

We used semi-dried tomatoes, marinated artichokes, grilled eggplant and red capsicum for the antipasto mix; however, any combination of vegetables can be used.
