Glamorgan Sausages are a traditional Welsh vegetarian dish made primarily from cheese, leeks, and breadcrumbs. The dish derives its name from the historic county of Glamorgan in Wales, where the local cheese was once a key ingredient. The sausages are usually fried until golden brown and are often served with a variety of sauces. Despite being called sausages, they do not contain any meat or sausage casing.
