While the bread bakes, peel and chop the onion. Wash the celery and clean the mushrooms, then slice and chop them. Wash and core the apple, then dice the flesh. Melt the butter in a large frying pan. Cook the onion, celery, salt and pepper for 4 min. Add the mushrooms, thyme, sage and parsley for 3 min. Crumble in the sausage meat, add the apple and cook for about 4 min more, until the meat is almost cooked.
