Sausages

One of my favorite things to cook is sausages -- usually I grill them, often a bit too much, but last night it was pissing down rain so I decided to try something different. I laid out a glass pan, heated up the oven, then set the sausages on a bed of green peppers and onions cut into thin strips, mixed with a bit of salt, olive oil and pepper. About half way through I flipped them over and made sure to cover them in the peppers and onions to help the flavor to soak through. They came out spectacularly -- nice and juicy and very flavorful. Put the sausage in a nice chewy roll and smother in peppers and onions, and it's like being at Fenway Park. Minus the 80 year old bathrooms.

My only problem was that the peppers and onion reduced way too much in the oven. Looking at them raw I thought I'd overdone it, but now I can see that next time, I'll need to use at least twice as many to get enough for all the sausages.

Cheap meal, too -- the sausages and rolls were on sale and peppers and onions come inexpensive enough.
