Bangers and Mash

Also known as sausages and mash potatoes, this dish appears in most restaurants' or pubs' menu. Basically, this dish consists of sausages, mash potatoes and vegetables as sides. Plus, it is really easy to prepare since this is a common English recipe. All ingredients are available at the local supermarkets and it is not expensive at all!

Preparation is quite easy too! 4 actions needed - slicing/cutting, boiling, mashing and frying.

First, chop up the potatoes into cubes and put in boiling water to soften them. Depending on the type of potato, it is important to boil them really soft so that it will be easier for you to mash. For me, I use a fork and poke through the cube to check whether it is soft for mashing. Once the potatoes are ready, drain the water out. Add in a knob of butter, milk and some salt and pepper for seasoning.

For the sausages, simply fry them until they are cooked : )

Oh yes, prepare some brown gravy to complement your mash and sausages too! Hahaha, I almost forgot : P
For this, I used brown granules again ^_^ However, if you don't have instant brown granules, you can read my previous post for the D.I.Y. version.

Tadaaa!

For the vegetables, please feel free to use whatever greens you like. Since fresh mushrooms are cheaper here, we bought some and fry them. Yum yum yum!

Needless to say, the sausages were really yummy - meat is always yummy! Hehehehe... the mash? If you like mash, I think there's no need to describe the yummy-ness of it too! This dish is really simple to prepare and I think one doesn't need to go to a pub to eat one... Well, unless the sausages are custom made : )

TheLoyalFan says: 'The new, more 'atas' sausages were yummy! Had a spring in them and full of flavour. Were matched perfectly with creamy mash and a tasty gravy... slept happy!'

It was indeed happy and satisfying for both of us. We will be missing the variety of sausages and potatoes when we leave here... *sob sob* So now, we must savour every moment of it!

Till then, keep nomming!
