Directions

In a braising pan over medium heat, add the oil. When the oil is hot, add the onions and crushed bay leaves. Fry the onions until golden, about 3 to 4 minutes. Season the onions with salt and pepper. Stir in the garlic, peppers and carrots. Continue to saute for 2 minutes. Add the potatoes. Season with salt and pepper.

Place the patties in the center of the vegetables. Add the red wine.

Add the stock up to about ⅔ the way up the sausage. Reserve the remaining stock to add during braising. Bring the liquid to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Simmer the sausage for 1 to 1½ hours or until the vegetables are tender and the sauce has thickened to a gravy-like consistency. Add the remaining stock every 30 minutes.

Ladle the stew into bowls and serve with crusty bread.
