Dinner Last Night

We had Bangers and Mash with Guinness while watching Boondock Saints. A classic St. Patrick's Day! This recipe from the Food Network was what the Hubby used as guidance. Enjoy!

Prep Time: 10 min

Cook Time: 40 min
Serves: 4 servings

Ingredients

• 2 pounds potatoes
• 8 links Cumberland sausage (Italian sausage may substitute)
• 1 tablespoon oil
• 1 large onion
• 2 tablespoons flour
• 4 cups chicken stock
• 4 tablespoons cream
• 2 ounces butter
• 2 tablespoons creme fraiche
• 2 tablespoons grainy mustard, plus mustard for dipping
• Salt and pepper

Directions

Peel and dice potatoes. Place in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, add salt and simmer for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, prick sausages with a fork, heat a skillet and brown the sausage in 1 tablespoon oil. Slice the onion. Remove the sausage to a plate and add the onion to the pan. Cook onions until soft, then add 2 tablespoons flour, cook for 1 minute. Add the chicken stock and return the sausage to the pan, cooking it through for about 15 to 20 minutes.

Drain the potatoes and run them through a food mill into a saucepan. Add the cream, butter, creme fraiche and mustard. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with side of grainy mustard for dipping.
