👨🍳 Инструкции
- 1
Prepare the mashed potatoes: Peel and quarter the potatoes. Place them in a large pot, cover with cold water, and add a generous pinch of salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to a simmer. Cook for 20-25 minutes, or until fork-tender. Drain the potatoes thoroughly in a colander, returning them to the hot, empty pot for a minute to allow any excess moisture to evaporate.
⏱️ 25 minutes - 2
While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the sausages: Heat 1 tbsp of vegetable oil in a large, non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the beef sausages and cook for 12-15 minutes, turning regularly, until they are browned all over and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 71°C (160°F). Once cooked, remove the sausages from the pan and set aside on a plate, keeping them warm.
⏱️ 15 minutes - 3
Make the onion gravy: Reduce the heat of the frying pan to medium-low. Add the thinly sliced onions to the pan with any residual sausage fat. Cook gently for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions are softened and beginning to caramelize to a rich golden-brown colour. Be patient, as this develops the flavour.
⏱️ 15 minutes - 4
Sprinkle the 2 tbsp of plain flour over the softened onions. Stir continuously for 1 minute to cook out the raw flour taste, ensuring it's evenly distributed.
⏱️ 1 minute - 5
Gradually pour in the 400ml of beef stock, whisking constantly to prevent lumps from forming. Bring the mixture to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Continue to simmer gently for 5-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the gravy has thickened to your desired consistency. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
⏱️ 8 minutes - 6
Finish the mashed potatoes: Add the 80g of butter and 100ml of warmed milk to the drained potatoes in the pot. Mash with a potato masher or ricer until smooth and creamy. Season generously with salt and pepper. If the mash seems too stiff, add a little more warm milk.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 7
Serve: Plate a generous portion of the creamy mashed potatoes. Arrange two sausages on top of or alongside the mash. Ladle the rich onion gravy generously over the sausages and mash. Serve immediately.
