Sausage and mash

Sausage and mash is excellent almost any day - but I made a really nice onion and mustard gravy which turned this into a real treat.

Potatoes
Sausages - these were pork and apple
Olive oil
Butter
Red onion
Garlic
Flour
Vegetable stock
Grainy mustard
Baked beans
Cabbage


1.  Prick the sausages with a fork and bung in the oven in an oven dish.  I add the tiniest splash of olive oil, roll them round in it - just to stop any initial sticking.
2.  Peel potatoes, boil for 15 minutes - until softish to a sharp knife.  Mash with butter and put into another oven dish - bake for 20 minutes, until the top goes golden brown.
3.  Sautee chopped onion and crushed garlic in olive oil until soft, add a tablespoon of flour and stir in until it becomes a paste.  Add stock and simmer, add a spoonful of grainy mustard, simmer again.  The gravy will thicken.
4.  Heat beans.
5. Steam shredded cabbage.
6.  Serve, scoff .... delicious
