Ingredients for Bangers And Mash England

  • Pork Sausage
  • 1 kg potatoes
  • 100ml milk
  • 50g butter
  • 250g frozen peas
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 large onion

How to Make Bangers And Mash England

  1. Peel and halve 1 kg potatoes. Place in a large pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until tender. Drain and keep warm in a low oven (around 100°C/212°F) with the lid on.
  2. While potatoes are cooking, peel and thinly slice 1 large onion.
  3. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and 2 cloves minced garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and slightly caramelized (about 8-10 minutes).
  4. Grill 6-8 sausages, turning frequently with tongs, until cooked through and nicely browned (about 10-12 minutes).
  5. With 3-4 minutes left on the sausages, add 250g frozen peas to a small pot of boiling water. Simmer for 3-4 minutes until heated through.
  6. Remove potatoes from the oven. Add 50g butter and mash until smooth. Gradually add 100ml milk until you reach your desired creamy consistency. Season generously with salt and pepper.
  7. Serve sausages with caramelized onions on top, alongside the peas and creamy mashed potatoes. Add ketchup on the side for a perfect touch.
  8. Enjoy your delicious and comforting Bangers and Mash!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
