Let the slow cooker do all the work in this autumn sausage and squash stew recipe, with sweet leeks, velvety squash and a splash of cider. Double up the quantities if the size of your slow cooker allows – it freezes really well. Finished with crispy sage and lemon, this is a big hug in a bowl. Serve with a crusty baguette to mop up all those juices, if you like.
