Comfort food at its best – sausage & mash with a beer and caramelised onion gravy.
Ingredients
Adjust Servings
- For the gravy
- For the mashed potatoes
Instructions
- To make the gravy, heat the oil and the butter in a large pan. Add the onions and sugar and cook over a low heat for 30-45 minutes, stirring now and then, until soft and richly caramelised.
- Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute. Then stir in the beer and beef stock until the gravy reduces to a rich, glossy sauce - about 20 minutes.
- Add a drizzle of Balsamic vinegar and season to taste with some salt and pepper.
- For the sausages and mashed potato, cook the potatoes in boiling salted water for 20 minutes until soft.
- Then after about 10 minutes, heat the oil for the sausages in a large frying pan. Add the sausages and fry them over a medium heat for 8-10 minutes, turning now and then, until nicely browned.
- Drain the potatoes and mash until smooth - a potato ricer does this really well. Mix in the butter with some seasoning and enough milk to make a smooth, creamy mash.
- To serve spoon the mashed potatoes onto 4 plates and rest the sausages alongside. Pour over some of the gravy and serve with seasonal vegetables and a good spoonful of English mustard.
