  • 0.5 cup Milk, warmed
  • 4 tablespoons Butter
  • 1 medium Onion, thinly sliced

Preparation Steps

  • Boil the potatoes in salted water until fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain well.
  • While potatoes are boiling, cook the sausages in a large skillet over medium heat until browned and cooked through. Remove sausages from skillet and set aside.
  • In the same skillet, add the sliced onions and cook until softened and slightly caramelized, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Sprinkle the flour over the onions and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  • Gradually whisk in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce until smooth. Bring to a simmer and cook until the gravy thickens, about 5 minutes.
  • Mash the drained potatoes with the warmed milk, butter, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning as needed.
  • Serve the cooked sausages over the mashed potatoes, drizzled with the onion gravy.

Notes

This dish is best served immediately. You can add a splash of beer to the gravy for an extra layer of flavor.
