Spicy Sausage and Ricotta Naans recipe by Cherrypick

A fuss-free, mid-week meal that you might not have tried before. Naan breads make the perfect base for so many interesting toppings, but these spicy sausages with creamy ricotta and lots of fresh chilli are just delicious.

Method

Based on 4 servings, adjust as needed.

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 180°C/200C fan. Place 2 trays into the oven and allow them to heat up while you assemble your naans.

Step 2

Spread 4 naans with 1 tbsp tomato and garlic puree, followed by a few slices of red onion. Slit 6 spicy sausages lengthways using a sharp knife and remove the meat from their casings. Evenly distribute small pieces of the sausage meat between the 4 naans. Finally spoon 4 tsp of ricotta onto each naan and drizzle generously with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. If you wanted to up the spice you could tear on a few pickled chillies (if using).

Step 3

Place the loaded naans onto 2 flat baking trays and bake in the hot oven for 12-15 minutes until the sausage is cooked and the bread golden. Remove from the oven and scatter with a little rocket. Serve with the remaining rocket, dressed with the juice of 1 lemon and a drizzle of olive oil. Don't forget the 8 pickled chillies on the side (if using).
