Cocktail Sausages
by Nigella. Featured in NIGELLA EXPRESSIntroduction
If you want to have something hot to pass around on a tray, then cocktail sausages are what you're after. There's nothing fiddly to make, nothing to go right or wrong, and everyone loves them. These are not just any cocktail sausages: the sesame oil, honey and soy give them a sweet-savoury stickiness that is pretty well impossible to resist.

Ingredients
Makes: 75 cocktail sausages
- 1 kilogram cocktail sausages
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 125 millilitres honey
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce

- ½ cup honey
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
Method
- Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C Fan/gas mark 7/425ºF.
- Separate the sausages, if they are linked, and arrange 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.
- Roast for 25-30 minutes; give them a shuffle about halfway through cooking if you happen to be near the oven.

We make these every Christmas as a pre dinner snack. Simply amazing!
Made this with salmon instead, delicious!
Love these sausages. I blogged about this recipe today over at www.trinamichellehouse.com
These sausages always go down a treat in my family - I have made them many times, with many comments after the recipe. I like to add some sesame seeds to the mixture as well. Enjoy!!
I just made these for my kids, my eldest who is 4 is autistic and bit of a nightmare with food. I used pork chipolatas and then popped them on pop sticks.. The best and most fun dinner we have had in ages!
I have made these on many occasions now and they always get gobbled up straight away, especially by teenagers and young adults. I cut chipolatas in half before cooking so I end up with little bite size pieces which are great for parties. These cocktail sausages are a very easy party food if you're not into spending a lot of time in the kitchen.
Brilliant cheeky treat to pass around on a cold winter night up north. Thankyou nigella. Love your number one fan x
Made these tonight, really nice!
I used regular sausages. It was surprisingly delicious. I would definitely make again.
Made these for my Fireworks Party this year. Let's just say they were gone in a bang! Everybody asked for the recipe! All the kids were asking their Mums for them for tea the next night! DELICIOUS!
