Heavenly (- ovenly) leek sausage

How is possible to turn an average lunch into something memorable? I started cooking around twenty to one pm. I was starting feeling those little hunger bites that risk to compromise the normal assumption of food, so I moved into the kitchen to prepare something. All of a sudden, I realized I had defrosted two leek sausages and I remembered (as soon as I spotted them) that yesterday night I had prepared some French beans with potatoes, so that the light marinate of Tesco organic* Balsamic vinegar (1,99£) and extra-virgin olive oil would have produced its seasoning effect over night. The fridge then provided me the three quarters of the inspiration. And I also figured out a link between my obsession for colour in my dishes and clothes. Sometimes the mind produces curious connections.

Clothes

may help to emphasise a status of the mind

(and unfortunately the status of the wallet,

it one is mastered only by appearances):

Isn't it true that the colours we dress reflect our humor: they why do not apply this concept to the cuisine? The real question that then was gearing around was how I would have arranged the two leek sausages: should I do them in the pan? Heavy, greasy, odd to clean. Should I do them under the grill? Boring and too simple! Can I do a barbecue on my own? Impossible, especially indoors, my flatmate wouldn't agree much. So what? Let's do them in the oven adding some personality!

The vegetables selection:

1 healthy-a-day green apple [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple];

1 organic carrot;

1 parsnip;

1 celery gem.

Produce three cuts in each leek sausage,

after having laid it down onto

an aluminium foil.

I could not resist to take a second picture,

because of the gleam. Vegetables are intense.

Cut roughly the vegetables and the apple

onto the sausages, as a garnishment

Add a section of butter-squash

Different tones of orange:

the favorite colour of a person dear to me.

Let it go in the oven for around 30 min at 210 °C

(gas mark 8)

Pass the dish, into the same tray,

under the grill for 4 mins

(this spaceship exhaust pipe-like grill is phenomenal)

A an overall view of the dish: 

sincerely (and immodestly) delightful.
