Sausage Casserole

This recipe makes a small amount of sausages go a long way!  

This meal fed 5 adults and 4 children.

12 sausages (not especially big ones either)
2 large carrots (not peeled)
5 potatoes (not peeled)
2 onions
(you could also add kumara and parsnip)

3 Tbsp cornflour
1 Tbsp tamari sauce
1/2 tsp mustard
1 tsp salt 
pepper to taste 

3 1/2 cups of rice

bunch of spinach
2 bok choy 
2 sticks of celery with the leaves on

1.  Put the sausages in a large electric frying pan with some water to cook.
2.  While the sausages begin to cook, wash the potatoes and carrots.  Cut them into bite sized chunks and add them to the sausages in the pan.
3.  When the vegetables are almost cooked through add the onion and turn down to a low heat.
4.  Wash the rice well and add 7 cups of water.  Cook for 10 minutes or until the water is gone.  Stir the rice to fluff it up and remove it from the heat.
5.  While the rice is cooking, cut up the spinach, bok choy and celery and put it in a frying pan with a little water.  Steam cook for a few minutes until the leaves turn bright green and remove from heat to serve.
6.  Mix the cornflour, tamari sauce, mustard, salt and pepper together with a small amount of cold water to make a paste.  Add 3 cups of cold water and pour this over the sausages. Cook on high until the gravy thickens.
7.  Serve.
