quantities for different serving sizes

This easily increases or decreases without any problems. As long as everything fits in the roasting dish in a layer.

prepare ahead?

You could easily cook in advance, refrigerate for up to a week before reheating in the oven.

variations for dietary requirements & fun

vegan / vegetarian – Replace the sausages with firm tofu cut into large chunks. Make sure you season the tofu generously. OR replace with 4 medium portabello mushrooms.

fun – play around with the vegetables. Parsnip, garlic, carrot, beetroot, cauliflower or red peppers (capsicum) would all work.

troubleshooting guide

too bland – Season with salt & pepper.

too dry – Add a little water, stir well in the dish to scrape up any lovely pan pieces and cook for another 5 minutes. Or just serve with some lemon juice and a generous drizzle of olive oil.

burning – the only trick is to make sure the pan doesn’t dry out too much during the second stage of cooking. Keep an eye on it and if you think it’s starting to burn, add more water 1/4 cup at a time.

veggies too crunchy – fresh cauli will take longer to cook than frozen, but still should be OK. Next time cut the veg into smaller pieces so they cook quicker

shriveled sausages – when sausages overcook they tend to go all wrinkly, next time cook them less, turn more often, or start the first stage of cooking with everything covered in foil.
