  • Oven Roasted Smoked Sausage and Potatoes
  • Ingredients:
  • 1 package of smoked sausage
  • (Peel if necessary, and slice into rounds)
  • 1 large onion, peeled and chopped
  • 5 large potatoes, peeled and chopped into 1/2 inch cubes
  • olive oil
  • fine sea salt
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • sweet paprika
  • dried thyme
  • a handful of grated strong cheddar cheese

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat the oven to 200*C/400*F/ gas mark 6. Line a large baking tray (with sides) with several sheets of foil, and drizzle with a bit of oil. Spread the oil out over the pan. Set aside.

Put the sausage rounds, onions, and potatoes into a large bowl. Drizzle with a couple of TBS of olive oil and season to taste with salt, pepper, paprika, and dried thyme. Toss together with your hands until everything is evenly distributed. Pour this out onto the baking tray, and spread it out as much as you can.

Place into the heated oven and roast for 45 minutes to an hour, stirring every 15 minutes or so, until the potatoes are golden brown and tender. Turn off the oven. Scatter the cheese over top of the cooked meat and potatoes, Pop back into the oven a few minutes to melt the cheese. Serve immediately.

NOTES

NOTE:  I would not use any more than 1/2 tsp of the dried thyme, unless you really, really like the flavor of thyme
