Instructions

  1. 1

    Boil the potatoes: Place the chunked potatoes in a large pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and simmer for 15-20 minutes until completely tender.

  2. 2

    Cook the sausages: Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan over medium-low heat. Add the sausages and cook gently for 15-20 minutes, turning frequently, until evenly browned and cooked through. Remove and keep warm.

  3. 3

    Caramelize the onions: In the same frying pan (using the sausage fat), add the sliced onions. Cook over medium heat for 10-15 minutes until soft, sweet, and deeply caramelized.

  4. 4

    Make the gravy: Sprinkle the flour over the caramelized onions and stir for 1 minute. Gradually pour in the beef stock and balsamic vinegar, stirring constantly to prevent lumps. Simmer for 5-8 minutes until a rich, glossy gravy forms.

  5. 5

    Prepare the mash: Drain the potatoes well. Mash vigorously with the butter, milk, and a good pinch of salt and white pepper until exceptionally smooth.

  6. 6

    Serve: Divide the creamy mash among plates, top with two sausages per person, and generously ladle the hot onion gravy over everything.
