A one-tray bake for simple cooking, simple cleaning up and lots of flavour. Marmalade gives a sweet and sticky glaze and the balsamic adds depth. Use any root vegetables, potatoes or squash varieties and buy the best quality sausages you can afford. Pork, chicken or vegetarian sausages all work great - just adjust cooking time accordingly

Ingredients
500g pumpkin (or butternut squash), sliced into wedges

2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
375g good quality sausages (6 large or 12 chipolata)

Method
Pre-heat a fan oven to 200C and prepare your vegetables
In a large roasting tin, toss the sliced pumpkin and onions with the olive oil and balsamic. Lightly season and roast for 20 minutes
Remove the roasting tin from the oven and give the vegetables a good mix around. Add in the sausages and torn sage, roast for another 20 minutes
Remove the roasting tin from the oven and spoon over the marmalade, giving everything a good stir. Return to the oven for a final 10 - 20 minutes, until the sausages are golden and cooked through, the vegetables are soft and caramelising

Chop the vegetables to similar sized wedges to ensure even cooking time
