n a saute pan fry the onions and garlic in the oil until soft, add the sausage meat and peppers and other vegetables (if using) and cook for a few more minutes.
Pour over the tinned tomatoes and stir in the ketchup. Season and then cover and allow to simmer, stirring from time to time until the sauce has thickened. 5 mins before serving stir in the frozen peas and corn.
Serve in a freshly baked ciabatta or crusty bread with sliced gherkins and cheese for the ultimate sausage ragu Sloppy Joe.
