Smoky sausage traybake recipe

Smoky sausage traybake recipe

Roasted sausages and veg sounds like a simple meal, but this recipe calls for some interesting spices and seeds to add a warm, smoky and peppery kick. Easy enough for midweek, but special enough for the weekend, this traybake makes a lovely alternative to Sunday roast or for when you come in from the cold on Bonfire Night! See method

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to gas 7, 220°C, fan 200°C. Put the potatoes in a large roasting tin, drizzle over 1 tbsp oil and season. Toss to coat, then roast for 20-25 mins until softened and turning golden.
  2. Meanwhile, toast the peppercorns, cumin seeds, coriander seeds and mustard seeds in a small frying pan over a medium-high heat for 2 mins or until aromatic. Use a pestle and mortar or a spice grinder to grind until fine. Transfer to a small bowl and mix with the remaining spices, the garlic and 1½ tbsp oil.
  3. Add the sausages, cauliflower and spice mix to the tin. Season and carefully toss everything together to coat in the spices. Return to the oven for 10 mins. Add the whole spring onions to the tin and roast for a further 15 mins or until all the vegetables are tender and golden brown.
  4. Set the sausages aside, then add the kale and drizzle with the remaining ½ tbsp oil. Carefully toss everything together, then return the sausages to the tin and nestle them in among the veg. Return to the oven for a further 8-10 mins until the kale is tender and turning crispy. Garnish with the sliced spring onions, and chilli and lemon wedges, if you like, to serve.
