INSTRUCTIONS.
THE POTATOES
- Chop the potatoes into 1″ cubes and place into a medium sized pot. Add cold water to cover potatoes by 2″. Cover with lid and set the pot to boil over high heat. (About 8 minutes.)
- Once the pot boils, remove the lid, lower the temperature to medium and continue to boil until the potatoes are fall apart with a fork tender. (About 12 minutes.)
- When potatoes are fall apart tender, add milk, half & half, butter, salt and pepper.
- Mash potatoes to desired consistency and stir to incorporate seasoning.
- If don’t first cover and place over a low heat to keep warm.
THE GRAVY
- Start the gravy once the potatoes are on the burner. Make a roux by melting 2 TBSP of butter over medium heat then whisking in 2 TBSP plus 1 tsp of flour. Allow it to cook for about 2 – 3 minutes, whisking constantly.
- Slowly add 1/2 cup of Guinness and 3/4 cup of beef stock, continuing to whisk. Add 1/2 tsp of yellow mustard, 1 TBSP Worcestershire, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp garlic powder and 1/4 tsp onion powder.
- Allow gravy to come to a boil, continuing to whisk constantly. Once the gravy thickens, drop the heat to low, cover and keep warm.
THE SAUSAGES
- Start the sausages when the potatoes have 5 minutes left.
- Heat a medium sized skillet over medium heat. Add in 1 TBSP of oil. Heat the oil, then add the sausages. Brown them for 2 minutes per side, for a total of 8 minutes.
- Divide the potatoes into two serving bowls or plates.
- Place a banger or two on top of the potatoes and cover with gravy.
