Sausage bake

Low fat cooking spray
1 small red onion, chopped finely
500g, of some kind of yummy sausage skinned. I use chicken piri piri from the sausage shop in Beckenham
1 x 200g pack low soft cheese with garlic and herbs
50ml chicken stock
4 carrots halfed and then quartered
350g potatoes peeled and sliced thinly

Preheat the oven to gas mark 6/200C/fan 180. Heat a non stick frying pan and spray with cooking spray. Add the onion and cook for 3 minutes until softened but not brown. Add the sausage and cook for 5 minutes until brown, breaking up with a wooden spoon.

Remove from the heat and stir in the soft cheese and stock until smooth. Stir in the carrot and spoon into a 1.2l (2 pint) ovenproof dish. Top with the potato slices, spray with the cooking spray and bake in the oven for 45 minutes until golden and cooked. Serve immediately.

The meat and stock can be varied, can be veggie, can be fish.
