Jamie Oliver’s sausage bake recipe

Ingredients

600g ripe mixed-colour cherry tomatoes

Four cloves of garlic

200g rosemary focaccia

One 660g jar of white beans

12 higher-welfare chipolatas

Method

Preheat your oven to 180ºC (350ºF) or gas mark 4.

Begin by slicing the cherry tomatoes in half, peeling the garlic and finely chopping it, and tearing the bread into small, bite-sized pieces.

Transfer all these ingredients into a large roasting tray measuring approximately 30cm by 35cm. Add the beans along with their liquid, then drizzle over one tablespoon each of olive oil and red wine vinegar.

Pour in a small amount of water to help mix everything, and give everything a good stir to ensure the ingredients are evenly mixed.

Next, take each chipolata sausage and, with a quick pinch and twist in the centre, split them into two smaller sausages.

Scatter these mini sausages randomly over the contents of the tray, gently pressing them into the beans and tomatoes.

Place the tray in the oven and roast for around 45 minutes, or until everything is beautifully golden, bubbling, and cooked to perfection.
