Recipe Tips

  • You can pan fry the sausages instead, but this will, of course, make more washing up.
  • If you’re using frozen sausages, then it’s best to defrost them before starting this recipe. Cooking from frozen may not deliver the best result.
  • Thick sausages work the best, but you can use slimmer ones instead. Just be careful that you don't overcook thin sausages. I recommend that you reduce the initial baking time of the thin sausages to only five minutes.
  • If you want to be super lazy, then you can always use a Yorkshire pudding packet mix instead.
