Ingredients

  • 22 rashers unsmoked streaky bacon, 6 halved
  • 16 Cumberland sausages
  • 12 chipolatas
  • 3 white onions, sliced
  • 3 red onions, sliced
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 5 tbsp wholegrain mustard
  • 5 tbsp tomato ketchup
  • 5 tbsp dark muscovado sugar
  • 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • soft rolls, to serve
  • oven fries, to serve (optional)

Tip

Cook it on the barbie
Cook the onions in the oven, but take the bacon-wrapped sausages outside. Cook them on the coolest part of the barbecue, so they cook through without burning, adding the chipolatas when the Cumberlands are about half done.

Method

  1. Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Wrap a whole bacon rasher around each Cumberland sausage and a half rasher around each chipolata. Spread out in 1-2 large, shallow baking trays.

  2. In a large roasting tin, toss the sliced onions with the oil, then roast on the top shelf of the oven with the sausages below for 20 mins. Mix together the mustard, ketchup, sugar and Worcestershire sauce with some seasoning. After 20 mins, stir this into the onions. Roast for 10 mins more until sticky, then remove from the oven and keep warm. The sausages should be cooked by now, but if they’re not browned and crisp, tip off any juices and grill until done to your liking.

  3. Split the buns and serve with the crisp bacon-wrapped sausages, sticky roasted onions and oven fries, if you like.
