    It was good, but if the essential part of this one is the caramalised onion, why bother searching out the jar? Slice a red onion - fry in the pan over highish heat and add brown sugar, honey or treacle to taste. I like the previous contributor's suggestion of maple syrup, so will try that next time.

    I copied honeybee's suggestion for the caramalised onions and added sultanas, red wine vinegar and cornflour. The sauce was thicker and tasted grrrrreat.

    Definately had the wow factor from my family, we had never tried caramalised onions before and loved it so much we will definately make it again, we used it as a gravy for Toad in the Hole with Mustard mash, yummy! :-)

    Try adding roast parsnips to the top of the pile once you have placed your mash sausages and onions, it gives it a nice finish and they taste yummy too!!

    A really nice mid-week meal. I too used Honeybee's suggestion about making my own gravy. I used a little bit of brown sugar and syrup, then added a little flour to thicken it up before adding the stock. Very nice gravy! I'm proud of myself!!

    A delcious meal to enjoy in these colder evenings! The onion gravy certainly gives it an edge! For a really smooth and creamy mash, warm the milk before adding to the potatoes for mashing. For more potato tips and for some tasty recipes visit this site: www.lovepotatoes.co.uk!!

    I used my mother in law's recipie for themash, she adds some butter, pepper, milk and a teaspoon of English mustard, it's really nice that way. I also did not have red onion but found it was really nice using normal brown cooking onions but adding a little honey to them before adding the stock. Great recipie and open to interpret any way you wish.

    @terezaroze Tried the mustard idea - used a teaspoon of Dijon . Brilliant! Who'd have thought so little would transform such a dish. I always add a tiny bit of finely-grated onion, too (about half a small one) to the potatoes as they're boiling. (Strangely, when Finns serve boiled potatoes, they don't tend to peel them before cooking, they peel them as they eat them...It tastes much better. Unbelievable difference.).

    I have always made my own gravy and carmelized my own onions. A little switch, I use part cooked potatoes and part cooked cauliflower, gives it an interesting taste.
