Sausages with Red Cabbage and Apples

45 minutes | easy | Serves 4-6

This hearty one-pan recipe is perfect for autumn, when there’s a slight chill in the air, but you still want to cook outdoors. Plump sausages are sizzled and served with lightly cooked red cabbage and sweet apples. Using the Jupiter Outback skillet means you can cook and serve everything in one pan, and of course there will be less washing up!

  • ½ red cabbage, cored and sliced
