Method
- Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Rub 1 tsp of oil over the potatoes, place on a baking tray and sprinkle with salt. Prick the potatoes once or twice each. Bake for 1 hr to 1 hr 15 mins until the skin is crispy and golden.
- When the potatoes are almost cooked, heat 1 tbsp oil in a pan on medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 5 mins until softened. Add the fennel, chilli (if using) and sausagemeat; cook over a medium-high heat for 5-8 mins until crispy and golden, breaking it up with 2 forks. Take off the heat and stir through the parsley.
- Tip the baked beans into a small pan and warm through.
- Cut open the potatoes and spoon over the beans. Top with the crispy sausage mixture and pickled cabbage, if using.
- Tip: To easily remove the sausage skins, gently press a knife down the length to cut through the skin. Peel off and discard.
