Notes
Always check that the potatoes are soft before mashing. Turn the sausages regularly so they brown evenly. Let the onions caramelize slowly for a richer flavor in your gravy. Adjust salt and pepper to taste as you cook. Optionally, add other vegetables like carrots or parsnips to the mash. You can also try different types of sausages to suit your taste.
