Italian Sausage, Potato & Mushroom Roast

Ingredients:

Serves 4

• 1-2 tbsp olive oil

• 8 Italian sausages (I love sweet fennel ones made locally) – leave links whole but separate from one another

• 2 red onions, peeled and cut into wedges

• 1lb/500g small new potatoes (or fingerlings, or larger thin skinned potatoes , quartered)

• 8oz/225 g cremini mushrooms, (quarter large ones, leave smaller ones whole or halved)

• Salt & freshly ground pepper

• Red chili pepper flakes (optional – I like a little heat to balance the sweetness of the sausages)

• 1 heaping tsp fresh rosemary leaves, chopped

Directions:

1. Preheat to 400°F/200°C. Drizzle a little olive oil in the bottom of a roasting pan large enough to hold everything in one layer.

2. Toss all the ingredients in the pan and roast until done, stirring occasionally. (about 30 minutes)
