Description
Bangers and Mash with Stout Onion Gravy is a hearty British classic featuring juicy sausages served over creamy mashed potatoes and topped with a rich, savory onion gravy made with stout beer.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb pork sausages (traditional British bangers or your preferred variety)
- 2 lbs potatoes, peeled and chopped
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 4 tablespoons butter
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 large onion, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 cup stout beer
- 1/2 cup beef or vegetable broth
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Instructions
- Boil the potatoes in salted water until fork-tender, about 15–20 minutes. Drain and mash with butter, milk, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
- While the potatoes cook, heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat and cook sausages until browned and cooked through, about 15 minutes. Remove and keep warm.
- In the same pan, add sliced onions and sauté over medium heat until caramelized, about 10 minutes.
- Sprinkle flour over the onions and stir for 1–2 minutes to create a roux.
- Slowly pour in the stout beer, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Then add broth and Worcestershire sauce.
- Simmer the gravy for 8–10 minutes until thickened. Season with salt and pepper.
- Serve sausages over mashed potatoes, generously topped with the stout onion gravy.
Notes
- Use Irish-style pork sausages for a more traditional flavor.
- Substitute plant-based sausages and broth for a vegetarian version.
- For extra creamy mashed potatoes, add a splash of sour cream or cream cheese.
