Succulent sausages

One of Britain's favourite foods, sausages lend themselves to cooking in lots of different ways and are ideal for a Hallowe'en or Bonfire Night party, appealing to adults and children alike.

Make Delia's Perfect Mash or other vegetable accompaniments and the humble sausage will be lifted into the realms of the sublime!
