Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 4 sausages (your choice of type)
  • 4 cups of potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 cups beef or chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • Optional: chopped scallions for garnish

Instructions

  1. Start by cooking the sausages. Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the sausages until browned and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  2. While the sausages are cooking, place the diced potatoes in a pot of water. Bring to a boil and cook until the potatoes are fork-tender. Drain the potatoes.
  3. Mash the potatoes with the milk and butter until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. In the same skillet used for sausages, add the flour and cook for a minute until it turns slightly golden. Slowly whisk in the broth, stirring until the mixture thickens to form a gravy.
  5. Serve the mashed potatoes on plates, top with sausages, and generously pour the gravy over the sausages and potatoes. Garnish with chopped scallions if desired.

Notes

Choose your favorite sausages for this recipe – from spicy to mild, pork to chicken – they all work well in this recipe. For the creamiest mashed potatoes, use starchy potatoes like russets and mash them while they’re still warm. Feel free to adjust the thickness of the gravy by adding more or less broth based on your preference. Serve with steamed vegetables like green beans or roasted Brussels sprouts for a well-rounded meal. Enjoy!

Chef’s tip: Enhance the gravy’s flavor with a dash of Worcestershire sauce or a splash of red wine.
