"You don't have to cook fancy or complicated masterpieces - just good food from fresh ingredients."
- Julia Child
Get a skillet or frying pan and set it on the stove top to medium heat. Add two tablespoons of oil (coconut, lard , bacon grease or tallow is best). Dice an onion while the oil heats. Put half of the onion in the pan and save the other half for the next meal. Slice some mushrooms (I like crimini, but normally the moat interesting i can find are baby bellas) and put them in the pan after the onions have softened.
While that is simmering, put some tomato sauce in a pot on medium low heat. Ideally, you would start with fresh tomatoes, garlic, oregano and basil, but a jar often must suffice. A midway solution would be a can of diced tomatoes with a tablespoon of tomato paste, mixed with some butter. Either way...add some brown mustard to the onion pan and stir that. Add oil as necessary so the bits don't burn. Add some heavy cream to the tomato sauce and stir.
Take a pack of chicken sausages (I use Aidells) and slice into rings. Add these to the onion pan and throw a list on it, to heat for four or five minutes. Mix the tomato sauce into the skillet and serve.
Julia Child wasn't always a chef.
