Sift the flour and salt into a large bowl, ensuring that the ingredients are well mixed. Make a well in the center, a perfect indentation where you will pour in the beaten eggs. It is important that the eggs are fresh and of high quality to give the dough a special flavor. Mix the eggs with the flour using a fork or spatula, and gradually start incorporating the milk and water, adding a little of each as the mixture thickens. Continue to stir in a circular motion to avoid lumps forming until the dough becomes smooth and has the consistency of thick cream. Once the dough is prepared, cover the bowl with a clean towel or plastic wrap and let it rest for 30 minutes. This step is essential as it allows the gluten to relax, which will help achieve a finer texture. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 220 degrees Celsius so that it is well heated when you place the tray inside. During this time, pour the oil into a roasting pan and heat it in the preheated oven for about 5 minutes. It is important for the oil to be very hot as it will contribute to achieving a perfectly crispy crust. After the oil is heated, carefully remove the tray from the oven and arrange the sausages in it, ensuring they are well distributed. Place the tray in the center of the oven and bake the sausages for 10 minutes, or until they turn golden and brown. Once the sausages are browned, whisk the dough again to aerate it, then quickly pour it over the roasted sausages, ensuring that you cover the entire surface evenly. Return the tray to the oven for another 35-45 minutes, or until the dough is well risen, has a golden-yellow color, and becomes crispy. It is essential not to open the oven door in the first 30 minutes to allow the dough to rise evenly. Serve the dish warm, garnished with fresh sage leaves, which add a wonderful aroma, and with fried apple rings if you choose to use them. This dish is perfect for a family meal or a special occasion, bringing a touch of joy and flavor to the plate.
