Sausage, Mash, Peas, and Onion Gravy

This wouldn't be a satisfactory food blog by a Northerner if it didn't include a weekday staple: sausage, mash, and peas. It's easy to make, tastes delicious, and goes down well with adults and kids alike.

Ingredients
  • Sausages (in this case, Linda McCartney originals, found in almost every supermarket including Lidl)
  • Mushy peas (these can be exchanged for garden peas for higher nutritional values)
  • White potatoes
  • Butter
  • Milk
  • Onions
  • Oil
  • Stock
  • Cornflour

Method
  1. Chop the potatoes into rough chunks and put them to boil in cold water
  2. Put the sausages in the oven as per the instructions (usually 200C for 20 minutes)
  3. Slice the onions into strips and fry gently in oil
  4. Once soft, coat with cornflour and stir
  5. Add stock and stir immediately
  6. Add more stock, stirring continuously, until the gravy has reached the desired consistency. For a stronger flavour, this can be done with gravy granules rather than cornflour.
  7. Drain the potatoes and mash with butter and a splash of milk
  8. Warm the peas in the microwave or in a saucepan
  9. Serve, and enjoy
