Sausage, peppers & onions
One pan, one burner. Soft peppers, browned sausage, bread or polenta to catch the fat. Acid and fruit cut sausage fat Gamay or a light Pinot, served cool. Red-fruit lift without tannin fighting sausage fat. Bottle math: one for three guests; keep a dry cider as fallback.
This is the base recipe: one batch, 6 portions. Nothing has been scaled, because there is no committed plan for this dish. Build and commit a plan that includes it and this card multiplies itself to the batch count the plan computes.

Multiplying the ingredients is the easy half. These are the parts of the recipe that the batch count does not move.
- Cooking time
- Pan time scales, because a second panful is a second turn: about 40 minutes at the stove in total. Crowding one pan to save a round drops the heat and stews it.
- Read the whole method before you shop. This is a planning recipe for sausage, peppers & onions, not a certified kitchen test.
- Amounts below are one batch: 6 portions. Build a plan and this card scales itself to it.
- This dish can be completed up to 1 day ahead. Cold storage is the real limit — do not make it ahead if the fridge is already tight.
- Stovetop occupancy is about 40 minutes at this scale. One pan, do not crowd.
- Holds about 40 minutes once finished. After that, quality drops — do not invent extra time.
- Drink pairing: Gamay or a light Pinot, served cool. Red-fruit lift without tannin fighting sausage fat. Bottle math: one for three guests; keep a dry cider as fallback.
- Leftover route: Reheat gently. Stuff leftover bread or fold through polenta. Do not recrisp the sausage to dry.
- Confirm every ingredient and every allergen yourself. Dietary tags are planning filters, not safety guarantees.
Can be completed up to 1 day ahead. Fridge units: 1 per batch, so 1 batch takes about 1 shelf-thirds while it waits.
Base recipe: one batch, 6 portions. Nothing has been scaled, because no plan was open. Cooking time does not move with the batch: about 40 minutes at the stove either way.
Not every line here was multiplied by the same number. Why doubling a recipe is not multiplication
