Grilled pork sausages with fennel, radicchio and roasted capsicum

-

SERVES 4

Use a mix of red and yellow capsicum for the salad if you have them. If you’re super-short on time, roasted capsicum from the deli would also work well. 8 thick pork and fennel sausages

150 ml extra-virgin olive oil ¾ cup (firmly packed) oregano 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar

1 tbsp lemon juice

1 tbsp finely chopped rosemary leaves

2 anchovy fillets

1 small garlic clove, crushed FENNEL, RADICCHIO AND ROASTED CAPSICUM SALAD 2 capsicum, quartered, seeds

and membrane removed 2 tbsp olive oil

1 fennel bulb, thinly sliced on a mandoline, fronds reserved

1 small head radicchio,

leaves torn

1 golden shallot, thinly sliced

into rounds on a mandoline 80 gm (½ cup) small black

olives, such as Ligurian ½ cup (firmly packed) oregano

1 For fennel, radicchio and roasted capsicum salad, preheat oven grill to high, place capsicum skin-side up in a roasting pan, drizzle with oil and grill until skin is blackened (8-10 minutes). Transfer to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and stand to soften (5 minutes). Peel, tear into large pieces, and combine with remaining ingredient­s in a bowl.

2 Meanwhile, heat a char-grill pan over medium heat. Drizzle sausages with 1 tbsp olive oil and grill, turning occasional­ly, until browned and cooked through (5-7minutes).

3 Meanwhile, to make a salsa, process remaining ingredient­s in a food processor until finely chopped, then season to taste.

4 Toss salad with half the salsa, season to taste and top with fennel fronds. Serve with sausages and remaining salsa.
