Oxford Sausage

Mille® 's Note:

These are succulent and meaty, well-flavoured with herbs and lemon. They are shaped by hands before cooking and do not have skins. They remind me of the sausage my mother bought from the local butcher when I was a kid. These keep very well in the fridge or freezer and can be reheated quickly.
