Amazingly, like the wartime savoury bake, it actually works; it's a little fiddly, but the result tastes of sausage and not of porridge, and is filling and appetising.
The main problem was knowing when the sausages were done, since the meat component goes in raw and needs to be cooked through, but the internal texture doesn't go crumbly like that of pure sausage-meat...
