Recipe Notes

from Australia’s Best Recipes team

Knackwurst works well but you can use any tasty, smoked sausage. I sometimes substitute 2 of the knackwurst for Chorizo sausages. I use an all purpose pan when making this so it can be used on the stove and also the oven, making this a one pan dish. Corn kernels or diced zucchini can also be added. I prefer to use the SPC brand of baked beans. The Homebrand variety are much drier. Slice knackwurst frankfurts into ½ cm pieces.
