Method
- 1
Squeeze the sausagemeat from the skins into small chunks. Heat the olive oil in a large pan and brown for 6 minutes, then lift out half for later.
- 2
Add the onion and fennel to the pan and cook for 8 minutes until softened, then stir in the rice and cook for 1 minute.
- 3
Pour in the white wine and let it bubble for 1 minute, then add the chicken stock a ladleful at a time, stirring often, for about 18 minutes.
- 4
Stir the reserved sausage back in for the last 5 minutes to heat through and cook with no pink remaining.
- 5
Stir in the parmesan, season with black pepper and serve straight away.
