Introduction from Rukmini Iyer

I usually think of sausage bakes as wintery dishes, but they work just as well with fresh courgettes, tomatoes and broccoli for a light, summery dinner.

Ingredients

250g Tenderstem broccoli
500g courgettes, cut into ½cm slices
300g cherry tomatoes on the vine
1 red onion, finely sliced
1½ tbsp olive oil
2 cloves of garlic, crushed
2–3 sprigs of fresh rosemary
1 tsp sea salt flakes (optional)
1 tsp chilli flakes (optional: leave out for children)
8–12 free-range chipolata sausages
1 lemon, juice only

Method

Preheat the oven to 210°C fan/230°C/gas 8. Put the broccoli into a large bowl, pour over a kettleful of boiling water, leave to stand for 1 minute, then drain well. If using ordinary broccoli, skip this step.

Tip everything into a roasting tin large enough to hold it all in a single layer, and mix well. Make sure the sausages are on top, then transfer to the oven and bake for 30 minutes.

If your oven heats unevenly, turn the roasting tin after about 20 minutes so the sausages brown evenly.

Squeeze a little lemon juice and sea salt over the vegetables to taste and serve hot.
