Method
- Heat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C.
- Place the sausages, potatoes, carrot batons and onion wedges onto a large baking tray, then scatter the thyme over the top. Try to spread the ingredients out so everything sits in a single layer.
- Drizzle over or spray the olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Then use your hands or a spoon to mix everything together so it is lightly coated in oil. Roast for 20 minutes.
- While the traybake cooks, make the marinade. Mix the apricot jam, wholegrain and Dijon mustards and cider vinegar in a bowl until smooth. The glaze should feel thick but spoonable, like a sticky sauce.
- After 20 minutes, remove the tray from the oven. The sausages should feel firmer and the vegetables will have started to soften.
- Spoon the apricot glaze over the traybake and return the tray to the oven for another 10-15 minutes, until the sausages feel firm and the glaze becomes sticky and slightly caramelised.
