• Separate the sausages if they are linked and arrange them in a large, shallow-sided roasting tin.
• Whisk together the oil, honey and soy sauce and pour over the sausages, then use your hands, or a couple of spatulas, to move everything about in the pan so that all the sausages are slicked.

DEVILED COCKTAIL SAUSAGES WITH CHUTNEY AND LIME DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• Make sauce:
• Combine chutney, lime juice and peel in processor; blend until almost smooth. Transfer to bowl. Whisk in mayonnaise. Season with salt and pepper.
• Make sausages:
• Preheat oven to 425°F. Place sausages in 8 x 8 x 2-inch glass baking dish. Mix brown sugar, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, mustard and hot pepper sauce in small bowl to blend. Pour over sausages and toss to coat. (Sauce and sausages can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover separately and refrigerate.)

WHOLEGRAIN MUSTARD AND GINGER COCKTAIL SAUSAGES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a bowl, whisk together the ginger conserve, mustard, garlic flavored oil and soy sauce.
• Turn the sausages in the mustardy mix and then arrange them on either a large, shallow-sided tin or 2 smaller tins. The height of the tin's sides will determine how quickly the sausages color and cook.
• If you are using high-sided tins, they will need about 45 minutes in the oven; cooked on a shallower tray, 30 minutes should be fine. And do line with foil or use throwaway foil trays, or washing-up will be a nightmare. To serve the sausages in their bread bowl, cut a circle around the top of the bread to take off a "lid". Put this lid on one side for a moment, and tear and pull out the doughy filling with your hands, leaving the crust intact so that you have a hollow bowl.
• Fill this emptied-out loaf with as many sausages as you can - you may have to top up with a few as you go - and then you can balance the lid at a jaunty angle for maximum effect and your guests' amusement. Serve with a small pot of cocktail sticks to spear the
• sausages, but if you're skipping the bread bowl option, let the hot sausages cool slightly before handing them out.
• Make ahead note:
• Put coating mixture in a resealable bag, add sausages and refrigerate for up to 2 days - put bag in bowl or on plate in case of leakage. Cook as directed in recipe.
• Freeze note:
• The sausages can be frozen in bag with coating for up to 3 months. Defrost overnight in fridge - put bag in bowl or on plate in case of leakage. Cook as directed in recipe.
