Description
Jamie Oliver’s Sausage Tray Bake focuses on simplicity, using only five ingredients to deliver a hearty meal that’s both satisfying and bursting with flavor. The sausages roast with the vegetables, absorbing their juices while crisping up on the outside, creating a deliciously easy one-pan meal.
Ingredients
- Sausages (6 good-quality beef or your favorite type): The heart of the dish, providing savory flavor.
- Baby potatoes (500g, halved): Adds substance and texture to the dish.
- Red onions (2, quartered): Brings sweetness and depth when roasted.
- Red bell peppers (2, chopped): Adds a pop of color and natural sweetness.
- Olive oil (2 tablespoons): For drizzling and helping everything roast beautifully.
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the oven
- Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
- Line a large baking tray with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Step 2: Prepare the vegetables
- In a large mixing bowl, toss the baby potatoes, red onions, and red bell peppers with olive oil.
- Season with a little salt and pepper for added flavor. Make sure everything is evenly coated.
Step 3: Arrange the tray
- Spread the vegetables in an even layer on the baking tray.
- Place the sausages on top of the vegetables, making sure they are evenly spaced for even cooking.
Step 4: Bake the tray
- Place the tray in the preheated oven and roast for 40-45 minutes.
- Halfway through, give the vegetables a stir and turn the sausages to ensure they brown evenly.
Step 5: Check for doneness
- After 45 minutes, check that the sausages are golden and cooked through, and the vegetables are tender and caramelized.
- If needed, bake for an additional 5-10 minutes until everything is cooked to perfection.
Step 6: Serve
- Remove the tray from the oven and let it rest for a couple of minutes.
- Serve the sausage tray bake hot, straight from the oven, with an optional green salad on the side.
