Method
- Cook the sausages according to the pack instructions and set aside.
- Meanwhile, spray a large non-stick saucepan or casserole pan with low-calorie cooking spray and put it over a medium heat. Add the onions, celery, peppers and garlic and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the paprika, oregano, Cajun seasoning and tomato purée and cook for 5 minutes, giving it a stir every now and then.
- Dissolve the stock cubes in 400ml boiling water, and pour the stock into the pan along with the passata and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low, cover and cook for 5 minutes. Stir in the rice, cover the pan again and cook for 15-20 minutes or until the rice is tender, stirring occasionally.
- Halve the sausages, stir them into the rice and heat through, then stir in the lemon juice and season to taste.
