Do you know - you really don't need to serve a 'mash' with sausages, why not try them with some sautéed spinach!
Ingredients
Serves Four
8 good-quality pork sausages
8 rashers streaky bacon
2 red onions cut into eighths
15 sage leaves
2 Tbsp. duck fat
1 cup Verjuice or white wine (optional)
2 Tbsp. butter
150g baby spinach
salt and black pepper
Method
1. Preheat the oven to 220ºC.
2. Wrap a piece of bacon around each sausage. Place in a roasting tin with the onions and sage leaves; spoon over the duck fat, especially over the onions.
3. Roast for 30–40 minutes on the middle rack, turning once, until the sausages are browned and cooked through.
4. Deglaze the pan with the Verjuice or wine and reduce until thickened.
5. Heat the butter in a pan; add the spinach and sauté until just wilted; season well.

Did you know - Spinach is available all year round but is in season during the spring (March - June). It is well known for its nutritional qualities and has always been regarded as a plant with remarkable abilities to restore energy, increase vitality and improve the quality of the blood. There are sound reasons why spinach would produce such results, primarily the fact that it is rich in iron.
Iron plays a central role in the function of red blood cells which help in transporting oxygen around the body, in energy production and DNA synthesis.
Spinach is also an excellent source of vitamin K, vitamin A, vitamin C and folic acid as well as being a good source of manganese, magnesium, iron and vitamin B2. Vitamin K is important for maintaining bone health and it is difficult to find vegetables richer in vitamin K than spinach. Others include kale, broccoli and green cabbage.

This one is not for me. I would love the spinach. Himself loathes it, but would happily gobble the sausages and bacon.

Hello there ...
I get duck fat from my local supermarket.
If you can't get it from yours you may be able to purchase it online.
If you cannot get duck fat you could consider using a good quality extra-virgin olive oil.
Hope this helps.
All the best Jan
Not too sure about this one. :)
Gracias por la receta lo haré con espinacas. Te mando un beso.

I cannot fathom eating bacon wrapped sausages! This sounds like a recipe for a heart attack.

Oooh yum, that looks good.
I bet this is good, and spinach is a great leafy veggie. Happy weekend to you.
Hello,
Another great recipe, it looks yummy!
Take care, have a happy weekend!
This looks good. I still have a little spinach in my garden from my fall crop (I have been covering and uncovering my lettuce/spinach patch when it drops below freezing and so far it is working but that will probably come to an end if we get snow and freezing rain this week).
We eat more spinach now than we ever day and really enjoy it as a side to any meal. Love cooking in the oven when it's cold outside! Enjoy your weekend!
I'll pass on the sausages and go straight for the spinach!
that sounds interesting
A delicious looking dish.
