Curly-wurly Cumberland sausage!

I was using "curly-wurly" as a description, here ... not as an ingredient!  (For non-UK readers,  a "Curly-Wurly" is a chocolate and chewy toffee bar, shaped into a long curly plait!)

We bought this Cumberland sausage ring from Morrison's - it came in a foil dish with sliced red onions and a sachet of ready-made gravy, so was exceptionally easy to cook.  It also tasted great!  We served it with fairly simple veg - mashed swede/carrot/parsnip, steamed broccoli/sugar snap peas,  and butter-steamed spring greens.  The fairly plain veg was a perfect foil for the slightly peppery sausage and tangy sauce ... a gorgeous meal that we will definitely be repeating!

  1. Thanks Val! I was looking for the name of this meaty contraption and now I know it's called a Curly-whirly Cumberland. This will save me from embarrassment at the local pub!

    2. Listen here Buckaroo! I was only looking here to discover the name of this magnificent meaty monster and you come here to harass me! Is this because of your insecurities over your husbands chipolata 'issue' Sue?
