Ingredients
Sauce Vierge
Directions
- 1
Trim and peel the artichokes, dipping them in a bowl of lemon water as you go to keep them from oxidising. Use a teaspoon to remove the choke - you can leave them whole or cut them in half lengthways.
- 2
Add the oil, shallot, carrot, garlic, thyme, artichokes, and salt/pepper to a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook for 1-2 minutes, then add the wine and stock. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, cover with a lid for 10 minutes. Keep an eye on it - if the liquid burns off too quickly, just add a bit more as you go.
- 3
Cook the sausages in a separate pan until they are nicely browned and almost cooked through. Add them to the artichokes and cook for another 5 minutes - 15 minutes in total.

Finish the sauce with butter and parsley. If it’s too thick, use a little water to bring it back.
