How To Cook This Recipe
 |
Heat the frying pan (skillet) to a medium heat and fry the
sausages until they are browned. This should take about 8 minutes. Keep turning the sausages whilst they are frying to ensure that they are browned on three or four sides. |
| Remove the sausages from the pan, leaving the juices
in the pan.
Add the onions to the pan with the butter and fry on a lowish heat for 10 minutes. By this time the onions will have softened. |
 |
Preheat the oven to 170°C / 325°F / Gas Mark 3
 |
Remove the onions from the pan and leave the remaining butter in the pan. Add the bacon and fry until it starts to crisp up. Turn frequently to ensure both sides are cooked. This should take about 8 minutes. |
| Chop each of the cooked sausages into 1cm (½ inch) slices. Layer the ingredients into the casserole dish. A layer of potatoes first, then half the thyme, onions, sausage and bacon. Then another layer of potatoes, then the remaining thyme, onions, sausage and bacon. Finally, top with a layer of potatoes |
 |
 |
Pour the beef stock over the potatoes so that it comes up just below the top of
the casserole dish. Place in the pre-heated oven and bake for 1 hour 40 minutes. Take the dish from the oven and sprinkle over the grated cheddar cheese. Place under a hot grill for 2 minutes. We served ours with baked beans and garlic bread. |
