To Make the Sausages

  1. Add the butter to a pan over medium high heat and allow it to melt down. Add in the olive oil.

  2. Place the sausages in and fry on each side until browned. This should take about 4 minutes or so on each side. Set them aside on a plate.

To Make the Sausage Gravy

  1. Add the onions to the same pan as the sausages. Allow them to fry, while stirring, until just about caramelized. 

  2. Place the garlic in and saute until fragrant. This will take about 2 minutes.

  3. Add in the flour. Stir and cook for a minute or two until cooked.

  4. Pour in half the broth and stir until combined. Add in the remaining broth, bring to a boil, and stir until it thickens.

  5. Put the Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper in. Stir once again. Set aside for a few minutes.

To Make the Mashed

  1. Add the potatoes to a pot of water and boil until fork tender. This should take 10 to 15 minutes depending on the size of the cubes. Drain.

  2. Add the milk, butter, salt, pepper, and garlic powder to the potatoes. Mash until smooth and creamy. You can put more milk in if necessary.

To Plate the Dish

  1. Place the potatoes on a plate, put two of the bangers over the top, and spoon the onion gravy over. Spoon some peas on the side, serve, and enjoy.

Note

As mentioned earlier, I use bangers which you can buy in just about any grocery store. They are simply pork sausages. You can use any kind of sausage though. Sometimes Italian sausages provide a bit more flavour. 

In terms of the seasoning, always adjust, omit, or add according to your liking.

For the beef broth, I always use Knorr which is a type of extract. It make a wonderful dark and rich gravy. You can, however, use beef cubes or stock broth if you wish.
