- For extra flavor, marinate the sausages in olive oil and rosemary for 30 minutes before roasting.
- If you prefer a crunchier texture, broil the traybake for the last 3–5 minutes of roasting.
- Use the reserved pasta water sparingly to avoid making the dish too watery—add a little at a time until you achieve your desired consistency.
- For a vegetarian variation, substitute the sausage with plant-based sausage or roasted chickpeas.
