Sticky sausage, apple & mustard bake

Preheat the oven to 200ºC, gas mark 6. Put the sausages into a roasting dish, prick each with a sharp knife and bake for 10 minutes.

Core and slice the apples into chunky wedges (leave the skins on), then slice the onion into wedges of a similar size. Toss in the olive oil, add to the part-cooked sausages and return to the oven for 30 minutes.

Whisk together the mustard, apple sauce, honey and vinegar in a small bowl. Check on the roasting dish – the sausages should be golden brown and the apples beginning to caramelise (cook for a further few minutes if they aren’t quite there).

Drizzle the dressing over the cooked sausages in the roasting tin, toss to coat, then return to the oven for another 5 minutes, until sticky. Serve immediately. I like this with green salad and buttered new potatoes.
