Preheat the oven to 220 °C (425 °F).

In a large bowl, mix all the ingredients gently, except for the reserved thyme branches for garnish. Generously season with salt and pepper. Place in a baking dish or on a baking sheet, with the vegetables first and sausages on top. Bake in the oven for 45 minutes, turning the sausages halfway through cooking.

Remove the sausage fricassée from the oven, garnish with the reserved thyme branches, and serve immediately, accompanied by a demi-glace of roasted vegetables if desired.
