2 large sausage whorls (available from most butchers), or 12 Cumberland butcher sausages that are still attached
1 cooking apple, roughly chopped
1 large celeriac, peeled and cut into small chunks
3 medium potatoes, peeled and cut into large chunks
- 15 g
(½oz) butter
- 2 Tbsp.
honey
- 2 Tbsp.
wholegrain mustard
- Step 1
Preheat grill to high. If using sausages, take 6 attached sausages, and without cutting them, untwist and push the sausage mixture to fill all the casing gaps, so that you have one long sausage. Repeat with remaining sausages. Roll into two large sausage whorls, pinning with a long skewer or cocktail sticks to hold in place. Grill for 10-15min, turning once, until cooked through.
- Step 2
Meanwhile, heat the apple with 1tbsp water over medium heat, stirring occasionally until apple has softened completely and is a purée consistency. Set aside. Put the celeriac and potato into a separate medium pan and cover with cold water. Bring to the boil, then turn down heat and simmer for 15min until soft. Drain completely, then return to pan and steam over medium heat for 1min. Mash together with butter until smooth. Stir in the apple and season to taste.
- Step 3
Mix together honey and wholegrain mustard and brush over sausages. Serve immediately alongside the mash.
