Method

Preheat the grill to high. Place the frozen sausages on a non-stick baking tray and grill for 20 mins, turning frequently, until evenly golden and cooked through. Cut into bite-sized pieces on a slight diagonal.
Meanwhile, cook the mashed potato according to pack instructions. Set aside.
Heat the oil in a frying pan over a high heat. Fry the onions and garlic for 5-6 mins until lightly golden. Remove from the heat and stir through the sausages, baked beans and BBQ sauce and season. Tip into a large ovenproof dish.
Top with the mashed potato, swirling it with a fork to encourage a crispy finish. Sprinkle over the cheese and grill for 10 mins until golden and bubbling.
Meanwhile, cook the peas in a pan of boiling, salted water for 3-5 mins until tender. Drain and serve with the cowboy pie.
