500g potato , cut into chunks
500g sweet potato , cut into chunks
2 tbsp olive oil or a knob of butter
grated nutmeg , to taste (optional)
6 large sausages
1 tsp West Indian hot pepper sauce
juice ½ small lime
1 tbsp soft brown sugar
2 tsp thyme leaf
2 garlic cloves , very finely chopped
1 tbsp tomato purée

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Put the potatoes in a pan of salted water and boil for about 20 mins until soft.
