Easy sausage casserole

This easy sausage casserole recipe is packed with flavour and requires little clean-up, because it’s made in just one pan. (You can even use the empty chopped tomato tin to measure out the stock!) It’s a midweek, or any day of the week, marvel.
- Simple ingredients: You’re likely to have most of the components, such as tinned chopped tomatoes, sausages and potatoes, in your kitchen already. Bay leaves, paprika and garlic add to the flavour.
- Quick prep: Only 15 minutes hand-on time is needed – the oven does the rest of the hard work .
- Make-ahead: The recipe can be prepared a day ahead, cooled and stored in the fridge before reheating until piping hot (see FAQs). Best of all, the flavour will be even better, as the ingredients will have had time to mingle and blend together.
Easy and tasty, this recipe is a user favourite. Here’s what other cooks had to say:
- “Tried this recipe this evening and it was absolutely lovely. Very easy to follow and cheap to make. I swapped the paprika for chopped fresh chillies and used beef stock instead of the veg but still turned out delicious. Highly recommended.”
- “I love this recipe because it is simple to do, I always have the ingredients for it and whenever it’s served, plates are empty!”
- “I came across this recipe and thought it looked easy and didn’t take too much time. Well… it came out really well and taste amazing.”

Before you start
It’s important to know that pricking sausages should only be done for casseroles like this, or when they’re being served in a sauce (otherwise you’ll end up with crinkled, dry sausages). The fat that’s released remains in the pan to flavour the sauce and other ingredients present.
You can use chicken stock instead of vegetable for a richer flavour, but always taste your casserole before adding more salt – some stocks are salty enough already.
Casseroles (and braised dishes in general) often taste even better when reheated the next day, as it allows the flavours to mingle. So see any leftovers as a bonus!
