Method
- Preheat the oven. Parboil the sweet potatoes in lightly salted boiling water for 5 minutes. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a frying pan and fry the sausages for 5 minutes, or until lightly browned. Remove the sausages and carefully cut each into 4 pieces.
- Place the sausages, sweet potato, garlic and onion in a baking tray. Drizzle with 2 tbsp oil, sprinkle over the mixed herbs and season with salt and pepper. Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the sausages are cooked through and the sweet potatoes are tender.
- Cook the peas according to the packet instructions so that they are done around the same time as the sausage bake.
- Serve the sausage and sweet potato bake with the peas and pour over the gravy, if using.
