Method

  1. Heat the oil in a medium frying pan (one the sausages will fit in fairly snugly). Add the sausages and fry for 8-10 minutes, turning them often. Turn the grill to high. Splash a couple of tablespoons of red wine into the pan if you are using it, then pour in the stock and stir in the caramelised red onions. Allow the mixture to bubble for 3-4 minutes, so it thickens a little and turns into a rich gravy. Remove from the heat.
  2. Spread the potatoes so they roughly cover the sausages and gravy. Put the frying pan under the grill for about 8 minutes until the potatoes turn crisp and golden. Serve while bubbling and hot - there is no need to add seasoning.

Taste team comment

'I loved the simplicity of this one-pot meal. I was surprised at the long-life potatoes; they tasted better than I imagined.'

    The caramelised onions in this were delicious. went so well with the sausages! I was a bit disappointed with the recipe though - firstly, it took a lot longer than it says it would and secondly, the 8 minutes for the potatoes just wansn't enough. After 8 minutes they were still completely solid. I left them in a bit longer and they started to burn so i had to bake the whole thing which took twice as long. In the future, i would cook the sausages with the caramelised onions but make the potatoes seperately. Still a very tasty dish though!!

    Nice taste but very difficult to get the long life potatoes :-)

    Successful when used with small red potatoes, sliced and pre-cooked, long life potatoes ...waste of time!

    I loved this recipe - I love sausage and mash but this was amazing! I added some leeks to the sausage/gravy mix, and made mash instead of grilling the potatoes on top. So easy and absolutely delicious - my boyfriend couldn't believe I had made it!!
