Prepare the Mashed Potatoes
Assemble and Serve
Stir in 1/2 cup of grated sharp cheddar, Gruyère, or Irish Dubliner cheese into the mashed potatoes for extra richness.
After caramelizing the onions, deglaze the pan with 1/4 cup of red wine or a dark beer like stout. Let it reduce by half before adding the flour and broth for a deeper, more complex gravy.
Experiment with different sausages. Chicken-apple, spicy Italian, or even high-quality vegetarian sausages can be used for a different flavor profile.
For a twist on the classic mash, substitute half of the potatoes with parsnips or celeriac. Boil them along with the potatoes until tender.
The high-quality pork sausages provide a significant amount of protein, which is essential for building and repairing muscle tissue.
Potatoes are an excellent source of complex carbohydrates, which the body digests slowly, providing a steady and sustained release of energy.
Both pork and potatoes are good sources of B vitamins, particularly B6 and B12. These vitamins are crucial for energy metabolism, brain function, and the formation of red blood cells.

Bangers and Mash is a classic comfort food and is high in calories, saturated fat, and sodium. While delicious, it's best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. You can make it slightly healthier by using leaner sausages and less butter.
For the most authentic taste, use high-quality British-style pork sausages like Cumberland or Lincolnshire. These have a high meat content and a coarse texture that holds up well.
Yes. Use certified gluten-free sausages, substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free all-purpose blend or a cornstarch slurry to thicken the gravy, and ensure your Worcestershire sauce is gluten-free.
For a richer gravy, you can add a splash of red wine or stout after the onions are caramelized, add a beef bouillon cube along with the broth, or stir in a small knob of cold butter at the very end (a technique called 'monter au beurre').
The mashed potatoes and onion gravy can be made up to two days in advance and stored in the refrigerator. Reheat them gently on the stovetop, adding a splash of milk to the mash if needed. For the best texture, it's recommended to cook the sausages just before serving.
