Instructions
1- Diving into making Bangers And Mash Pie is simpler than it sounds, and the results are worth every step. Start by boiling the diced potatoes in salted water until theyβre tender, which takes about 15 minutes, then drain and mash them with butter, milk or cream, grated cheddar cheese, and a heaped tablespoon of Dijon mustard. Season the mash well with salt and black pepper to bring out the flavors. Simple sausages recipe can give you extra tips if youβre new to this.
2- Next, brown the pork sausages in olive oil until theyβre golden, then slice them up. Use the leftover fat to slowly cook the sliced onions until they caramelize, adding that deep, sweet flavor to the dish. To build the gravy, melt butter in a pan and stir in the plain flour to make a roux, then gradually add the red wine and beef stock. Mix in Worcestershire sauce, dried thyme, salt, and pepper, and let it simmer before adding the sausage pieces.
3- Once the mixture is ready, pour it into a baking dish and let it rest for 5-10 minutes to form a slight skin. Top it with the cheesy mashed potatoes, spreading them to the edges and roughing up the surface with a fork. Bake at 200Β°C (390Β°F) for 20 minutes until the top turns golden, then rest for 5 minutes before serving. This method, totaling about 1 hour and 5 minutes, creates a pie thatβs perfect for food enthusiasts looking for a cozy meal.
