Sausages with Pears, Apples & Onions

INGREDIENTS :

• 4 knack smoked sausages

• 4 small pears

• Honey

• Zest and juice of 1 lemon

• 5 ml (1 tsp.) Juniper berries

• 2 Granny Smith apples

• 1 red onion

• Canola oil

• 5 ml (1 tsp.) mustard seeds

INSTRUCTIONS :

• Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).

• Prick sausages with a fork and cut them into three pieces. Place them on parchment paper and cook them in the oven until they are golden brown.

• Meanwhile, prepare the fruits: peel the pears but leave stems intact. Place them in a pot with enough water to cover. Add the honey, lemon zest and juniper berries. Simmer on low heat for 20 minutes.

• Hollow out the apples and cut them into small cubes (without peeling them).

• Peel the red onion and cut into small pieces. Sauté in a nonstick skillet with a bit of canola oil. Cook until onions are translucent. Add the mustard seeds and cubed apples. Let them brown.

• Prepare the preheated plates with 1 cooked pear, 3 pieces of sausage and a few spoonfuls of the apple and onion mixture.
