Sweet Cherry Tomatoes and Sausage Bake (Jamie Oliver)

Ingredients

2kg lovely ripe cherry tomatoes (mixed colours if you can get them)

2 sprigs each of fresh thyme, rosemary & bay leaves

1 tablespoon dried oregano

3 cloves garlic, peeled & chopped

12 good quality  sausages

Extra virgin olive oil

Balsamic vinegar

Sea salt

Ground black pepper

Method


  1. Preheat oven to 190 degrees. Get yourself an appropriately sized roasting tray, large enough to take the tomatoes in one snug-fitting layer.
  2. Put in all of your tomatoes, the herb sprigs, oregano, garlic and sausages.
  3. Drizzle well with extra virgin olive oil and balsamic olive oil. Season with sea salt and ground black pepper.
  4. Toss together, then make sure the sausages are on top. Pop the tray into the oven for half an hour. After this time, give it a shake and turn the sausages over.
  5. Put back into the oven for fifteen to thirty minutes depending on how golden and sticky you like your sausages.
  6. Once it’s cooked, you’ll have an intense tomatoey sauce. If it’s a little too thin, lift out the sausages and reduce the sauce down to a consistency you like. (note, make sure the roasting tray can go from the oven to the stovetop!).
  7. Put the sausages back into the pan. Check the seasoning and serve either with a good quality loaf of bread warmed through in a low oven or with mashed potato, rice or polenta, a green salad, and a nice glass of wine!
