One Pan Sausage Bake


This is one of my own creations. It’s a very simple recipe that you can make using whatever you have at the time. If the sausages are flavoured, I often take the herbs and other elements of the dish in a similar direction. I also love to use herb salts in this type of cooking for dramatic flavour enhancement.

Servings 4

Ingredients

6 sausages, cut into pieces (3-4 pieces per sausage) 

1 large sweet potato, roughly cut into 5 cm cubes

1 onion, cut into quarters

2 carrots, roughly cut into  5cm pieces

2 tomatoes, cut into halves

1/2 cup of pitted olives

1 capsicum, cut into 2cm strips

8 garlic cloves, peeled 

olive oil

4 sprigs of fresh oregano  or 2 tsp of dried

Salt and pepper

40g feta


Method

Preheat oven to 180°C

Cut the sausage into pieces and place in baking tray. Cut all the vegetables into pieces as listed and toss into the baking tray. Peel the garlic cloves and gently lean on them with a knife to bruise them, so they release flavour whilst cooking. Generously pour olive oil all over the sausages and vegetables. Toss to coat. Sprinkle with oregano, salt and pepper.

Place in the oven and cook for 20 minutes. Remove tray and toss everything around to turn over and coat with the pan juices. Return to the oven for an additional 10-15 minutes. Cooking time will vary depending on the size you have cut all the vegetables. Remove when the sausages are golden and the vegetables are tender.

Serve in bowls with a generous sprinkle of feta
