BANGERS AND MASH IN AN APPLE RED WINE GRAVY

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a high heat and add the sausages. Cook for 15 minutes, turning to brown all over.
• Meanwhile, cut the potatoes into even chunks and put into a large pan of cold salted water. Bring to the boil and simmer for 15 minutes, or until tender.
• Core the apples and cut into wedges.
• Push the sausages to the edge of the pan and add the apple wedges. Cook for about 2 minutes each side, until turning golden.
• Remove the apple with a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper. Add the onion to the pan and cook, stirring, for 6-8 minutes, until softened.
• Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute.
• Gradually add the wine, mustard and Worcestershire sauce.
• Pour in 120ml hot water and allow to bubble for a few minutes to thicken the gravy.
• Return the apple to the pan and season.
• Drain the potatoes, then put them back in the same pan and return to the heat for about 30 seconds to drive off any excess moisture.
• Mash well with the butter and milk, and season.
• Divide the mash between 4 plates and top with the bangers.
• Spoon over the mustard gravy and apple wedges. Serve with green beans.

BANGERS AND MASH WITH ONION GRAVY

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Heat the oil in an ovenproof frying pan and gently sizzle the sausages over a medium-high heat for 8-10 mins, turning them, until browned on all sides. Transfer to a plate, then put the butter in the pan and heat until sizzling. Scatter in the onions, stirring them into the butter, then add the thyme sprig, bay and sugar. Give everything a final stir, then put the sausages on top and drizzle over any juices from the plate. Roast everything for 20 mins, turning the sausages halfway through.
• Meanwhile, make the mash. Tip the potatoes into a pan of cold salted water and bring to the boil, then turn down and simmer for 10-12 mins or until just cooked all the way through (the tip of a knife should slide in easily). Drain in a colander and leave for a minute. Tip the milk into the pan and bring to a simmer, then pass the potatoes through a ricer into the hot milk and mash thoroughly. Once mashed, beat with a wooden spoon or spatula over very low heat, then beat in the butter a few bits at a time. You should have extra-fluffy, smooth mash. Keep it warm.
• When the sausages are cooked, remove from the oven, turn the oven off and lift the sausages onto a tray. Return them to the oven to keep warm. Put the pan back on the heat and give the roasted onions a stir, they should be sticky and slightly burnt around the edges. Sizzle for a minute or two more to caramelise, then stir in the flour and cook for another minute. Splash in the vinegar, simmer for a minute, then pour over the red wine and soy, and bubble down to a gloopy paste. Pour over the stock and boil for 3-4 mins, or until you have a rich gravy. If you prefer, scoop out the thyme and bay, or just leave it in. Tip into a bowl or gravy jug with a serving spoon for the onions. Bring everything to the table and scoop a big mound of mash onto the middle of each plate, then top with the sausages and gravy.

BANGERS AND MASH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Roast the sausages on a rack for 25 minutes, turning over halfway through the cooking time.
• While the sausages are roasting, dice the potatoes and boil them until very tender in water salted with 1 Tbs salt.
• While the potatoes are cooking, melt the butter for the gravy in 12 inch skillet.
• In the skillet, saute the onions over medium-high heat until they are starting to caramelize, stirring often.
• Sprinkle the flour over the onions and mix well before cooking for a few more minutes.
• Stir the broth, vinegar, worchestershire suace, mustard, pepper, and salt into the onions and continue to cook until the gravy thickens. This is not a super thick gravy, but it should coat a spoon.
• When the gravy is almost ready, the potatoes should be done. Mash the potatoes (I do this by hand, but you could use a mixer) with the milk, butter, nutmeg, and salt.
• Serve the gravy over the sausage and potatoes with a side of buttered peas.
