Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil on a baking sheet and spread it around to prevent sticking.

Place the potatoes face down on the baking sheet.

Add the halved sausages to the bowl with the potatoes and mix gently to avoid crumbling the sausages.

Lay the sausages on the baking sheet with the potatoes, staggering them around.

Toss in the garlic cloves with the potatoes and sausages on the baking sheet.

Bake in the oven for 20 minutes.

Remove from the oven and turn over the sausages and potatoes to check for caramelization.

Return to the oven for an additional 15 minutes.

Sprinkle fresh flat-leaf parsley over the dish before serving.
