Detailed Directions and Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F).
Step 2: Prepare the Sausages
Take the white sausage and place it in a baking dish. Poke a few holes in the sausages with a fork to allow steam to escape during cooking.

Step 4: Add Vegetables (Optional)
If desired, add sliced onions, garlic, or other vegetables around the sausages in the baking dish.

Ensure that the sausages are fully cooked by checking that the internal temperature has reached at least 75°C (167°F).
