Ingredients

• 4 bratwurst sausages
• 500 grams baby potatoes
• 3 carrots
• 1 red bell pepper
• 1 yellow onion
• 3 garlic cloves
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).

Step 2

Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and slice them in halves. If they're larger, quarter them.

Step 3

Peel the carrots and slice them into 1/2-inch thick rounds.

Step 4

De-seed and dice the red bell pepper into bite-sized pieces.

Step 5

Peel and chop the yellow onion into large chunks.

Step 6

Mince the garlic cloves finely or crush them using a garlic press.

Step 7

In a large mixing bowl, combine the potatoes, carrots, bell pepper, onion, and garlic.

Step 8

Drizzle the olive oil over the vegetables and toss to coat evenly.

Step 9

Sprinkle the dried thyme, dried rosemary, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper over the vegetables. Mix well to ensure all pieces are seasoned.

Step 10

Transfer the seasoned vegetables into a large baking dish or a sheet pan lined with parchment paper, spreading them into an even layer.

Step 11

Place the bratwurst sausages on top of the vegetables, ensuring they are evenly spaced.

Step 12

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, flipping the sausages halfway through, until the vegetables are tender and the bratwurst is fully cooked (internal temperature of 71°C or 160°F).

Step 13

Remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for a couple of minutes.

Step 14

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve warm. Enjoy your bratwurst bake!
