1
  • Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
  • Pop the sausages onto a lined baking tray and roast them on the top shelf of your oven until browned and cooked through, 18-20 mins.
  • Turn halfway through cooking. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands after handling raw meat. The sausages are cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
2
  • Boil a large pot of salted water for the potatoes.
  • Chop the potatoes into 2cm chunks (peeling optional).
  • When boiling, add the potatoes to the water and cook until fork tender, 15-20 mins.
  • Once cooked, drain in a colander and return to the pot, off the heat. 

TIP: If you’re in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.

3
  • Add a knob of butter and a splash of water or milk to the potatoes.
  • Mash until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Mix the baby spinach into the mashed potatoes. Cover to keep warm.
4
  • Halve, peel and thinly slice the onion.
  • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan on medium-high heat.
  • Add the onion to the pan and fry until softened, stirring occasionally, 4-5 mins. This is the base of your gravy.
5
  • Lower the heat of the pan to medium and add the balsamic vinegar. Cook until almost evaporated, 1-2 mins.
  • Add 75ml water (double for 4p) to the pan and bring to the boil.
  • Stir in the chicken stock, honey and tomato paste.
  • Simmer until the sauce has thickened slightly, 2-3 mins.

TIP: Add a splash of water if you feel it needs it.

6
  • Share the colcannon between your plates and serve the sausages alongside.
  • Spoon the gravy over the sausages and tuck in.
