Published: by Absolutely Recipes, in the Meat recipes category.
8 pork sausages (traditional British-style or your preferred variety)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 large potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
½ cup milk (or more as needed)
Salt and pepper, to taste
Onion gravy (optional, for serving)
Cook the Sausages:
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Place the sausages on a baking sheet and drizzle them with vegetable oil.
Bake the sausages in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Turn them over halfway through cooking for even browning.
Prepare the Mashed Potatoes:
While the sausages are baking, place the potato chunks in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add a pinch of salt to the water.
Bring the water to a boil and cook the potatoes until they are tender when pierced with a fork, usually around 15-20 minutes.
Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add the butter and milk to the pot.
Using a potato masher or an electric mixer, mash the potatoes until smooth and creamy. Add more milk if needed to achieve the desired consistency.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve and Enjoy:
Place a generous scoop of mashed potatoes on each plate.
Arrange two sausages on top of the mashed potatoes.
If desired, pour onion gravy over the sausages and mashed potatoes for added flavor and richness.
Serve immediately while the sausages and mashed potatoes are still hot.
