First, gather all of the ingredients together.

Next, prepare the ingredients by slicing the shallots, garlic, mushroom and chilli. Also, roughly chop the herbs and cut the sausage into bite-size bits.

Cook the rice and set aside.

Add a splash of water to the saffron and leave to hydrate. Do not throw the water away.

Whisk the egg and using a small frying pan, fry the egg off as if you were making an omelette but scramble it. This will be added to the rice later.

With all of the ingredients prepared heat your wok up and add a small splash of olive oil (you can also use sesame oil if you fancy). Add the sausage and fry off until cooked.

Once the sausage is cooked, set them aside and remove the unhealthy pork fat from the wok. Add a little more olive oil and add the shallots, garlic, mushrooms and chilli.

Now, add the cashews and heat through.

Add back the sausage.

Now add the saffron along with the water it has been soaking in.

Quickly add the egg and the rice and coat with the saffron water. Heat through and season this to taste.

Finally, add half of the chopped herbs and mix into the rice.

And there you go. Serve in bowls with a good portion of the remaining herbs on top, a good squeeze of lime and enjoy. That style sausage fried rice. Yum!
