Sticky Sausage and Onion Traybake
Traybakes are the lazy cook’s best friend and this one is a proper winner. Sausages, potatoes and onions roasted together on one tray with a sticky honey-mustard glaze is the kind of meal that looks like it took effort but actually took 10 minutes of chopping and then the oven did all the work. At 78p a portion it is cheaper than any ready meal and tastes better too. The honey-mustard glaze in the last 5 minutes is what makes it special – the sausages go all sticky and caramelised and the potatoes soak up the juices.
Sticky Sausage and Onion Traybake
Ingredients
Method
- Preheat the oven to 200C/180C fan/Gas 6. Put the potato wedges and onion wedges in a large roasting tin. Drizzle with the oil, sprinkle with thyme, salt and pepper, and toss to coat.
- Roast for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and turn everything over.
- Nestle the sausages in amongst the potatoes and onions. Return to the oven for 20 minutes until the sausages are golden and the potatoes are crispy.
- Mix the honey and mustard together. Brush or drizzle over the sausages in the last 5 minutes of cooking.
- Serve straight from the tray with a green vegetable or baked beans on the side.
Tips and Variations
Cut the potatoes into even-sized wedges so they all cook at the same rate. Any sausages work but smoked ones are particularly good. Add a few carrots or parsnips to the tray for extra veg. The honey mustard glaze burns easily so only add it in the last 5 minutes.
