Sticky Spiced Berry Sausages

Pre-heat the oven to 200c, gas mark 6. Place the sausages in a non stick baking tray, pour over 2 tbsps of the cordial, toss until coated. Cook in the oven for approx 10-15mins turning at regular intervals, top with the flaked almonds and continue to cook for a further 5-10 mins. The sausages and almonds will be golden brown and the cordial a sticky glaze.

Meanwhile, place the cranberries in a saucepan with the remaining cordial, simmer over a gentle heat until the cranberries are cooked and the cordial reduced to a jam like consistency. Serve the sausages on cocktail sticks with the cranberry relish to dip into.

Cooks Tip: The cranberry dip is also delicious served with turkey or ham and can be made ahead and stored for several days in the fridge.
