200g smoked bacon or pancetta
200g mushrooms, halved
1 onion, finely chopped
1 tbsp flour
400ml red wine

Method
Heat a glug of olive oil in a frying pan on a medium heat, and brown the sausages.
Once browned, set the sausages aside, and add the onion, garlic and bacon to the pan, and cook for 15 minutes, until the bacon is cooked through and the onions soft.
Stir in the flour to the onions and cook for 2 minutes. Add the sausages back to the pan.
Pour in the wine, Worcester sauce, and herbs, and stir everything together thoroughly.
Put the lid on the pan and simmer away for 30 minutes on a low heat.
At this stage, add the mushrooms, and some salt and pepper. Cook for a further 30 minutes.
When the sauce has thickened, add the butter at the very end and stir through.
Serve with mashed potatoes and cabbage.
