Sausage, Fennel and Apple Tray Bake

Ingredients

8 baby white potatoes
500 g pork sausages with cider & apple, or plain pork
2 fennel, quartered, fronds reserved
2 red apples, thickly sliced crossways
1/3 cup (80mL) plum sauce

Method

Preheat oven to 200 C. Place the potatoes on a plate lined with paper towel. Prick all over with a fork. Sprinkle with a little water and cover with another piece of paper towel. Cook the potatoes in microwave on high for 5 minutes or until just tender.

Meanwhile, spray a large flameproof roasting pan with olive oil spray. Place over medium-high heat. Add sausages and cook, turning, for 5 minutes or until browned all over. Remove from heat. Transfer the sausages to a plate.

Add the potatoes to the pan. Use a potato masher to gently crush. Add the fennel. Spray with oil. Bake for 20 mins or until golden.

Add the apple to the pan with the sausages. Bake, turning apple halfway through cooking, for 20 minutes. Drizzle with the plum sauce.

Bake for a further 5-7 minutes or until the sausages are cooked through and the apple and vegetables are golden. Sprinkle with the reserved fennel fronds.
