My husband Howard, son Ted and I love sausages. I don’t know why but I often forget about this food. That is until Howard and Ted remind me we haven’t had sausages in a while. When they reminded me this time I had a sudden surge of inspiration. I thought about all the dishes I could cook with them. Then I realised I had never cooked a sausage bake before so I got to work. Hey presto, this meal was a hit in our house so of course, I had to share the recipe with you. Below is a video and recipe for you.

Equipment
- Sharp knife
- Chopping board
- Baking tray
- Teaspoon
- Saucepan
- Colander
Ingredients
- Sausages x 8
- Onion x 1
- Potatoes x 1
- Red pepper x 1
- Garlic granules x 1 – 2 tsps
- Fresh rosemary x 2 large stalks or 1 – 2 tsp dried
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Broccoli
- Oil for the base of the baking tray
Method
- Preheat the oven to 200°C or gas mark 6.
- Pour oil into the baking tray and place the tray into the oven while it preheats.
- Peel and slice the onion and set aside.
- Next peel the potatoes and cut into 1 inch pieces.
- Put the large saucepan on the hob and add cold water.
- Place the potatoes into the water and add a couple of pinches of salt.
- Bring the water to the boil and then turn the heat down.
- Leave to simmer for 5 minutes.
- Drain the potatoes through the colander and rough the edges of the potatoes on the colander.
- Set the colander over the saucepan aside.
- Slice the top from the red pepper.
- Remove the core and the stalk.
- Then slice the flesh.
- Pierce the sausages with the knife.
- I like to pierce them about three times on two sides of the sausages.
- Remove the baking tray from the oven and put the cut vegetables in.
- Place the sausages on top.
- Put the tray back into the oven for 25 – 30 minutes or until the sausages and potatoes are golden brown.
- While these are cooking cut the broccoli into florets or little trees.
- Put a pan on the hob and bring to the boil.
- Once boiling place the florets into the pan and bring to the boil again.
- Turn the heat down to a medium heat and leave to simmer for 5 minutes or until fork fall.
- If you like the sausages to brown evenly you may need to turn them half way through.
- Once cooked drain through the colander and set to once side.
- Once cooked remove from the oven and serve with the broccoli.
- Then enjoy.
Sausage Bake was a big hit in our house. Howard, Ted and I really enjoyed this meal. It was easy to prepare and cook. Plus it wasn’t time consuming either. Personally I don’t think the dish is freezable but it could make a delicious leftover lunch the next day. The plates were cleaned and ready to put back in the cupboard when I served this dish. I hope they will be in our house too. However you decide to eat this dinner, as always, please enjoy. Thank you. xxx
