The Hole Story (No. 13) (Bangers and Mash)

Product Information

Traditionally you’d serve with peas, but I do not like peas (sorry, it’s my only fussy food pass). In reality though you can serve it with any veg, or even just as it is! In the event of a low-carb emergency, Creamy Mashed Cauliflower is a great alternative and unexpectedly delicious! – Nagi x You'll find a version of bangers and mash on nearly every British and Irish pub menu, and it really is a hearty warming dish of food. But Why Bangers???

First of all, make sure they’re pork. I don’t think I’ve ever been served sausages that weren’t pork whilst in the UK. Plus pork works best with the flavour profile of this dish. Secondly, make sure they’re good quality and preferably plain (i.e. not loaded with herbs or different flavour combos). My favourite sausages to use are Cumberland sausages.Then place the sausages in a single layer in the frying pan. Let them fry a minute or so, then turn them over, fry another minute, turn them around again, to try and get a bit of colour all over. The only sausages I do not recommend using are lean sausages because they won’t drop enough juices and fat to make a truly tasty gravy. Cook off flour– Add the flour into the onion mixture and cook it for a couple of minutes. This will cook out the rawness of the flour.

Potatoes: You want a medium-starch potato like Yukon Gold, Dutch Cream, Desiree, or Maris Piper. This gives you a fluffy mash, but with plenty of taste. Process shots: add sausages to pan with oil (photo 1), fry then remove (photo 2), melt butter and add sliced onion (photo 3), fry until soft/golden (photo 4). The series revolves around the adventures of two chimpanzees, Bangers and Mash, and is based on a series of children books by Paul Groves and Edward McLachlan. [1] This series of reading books were used in schools in the 1980s. The series' narration and character voices were provided by Jonathan Kydd, and the incidental music and theme tune were written and performed by Chas & Dave. [2] The series was also exported to New Zealand and Australia where it aired on Channel 2 and ABC respectively.I typically fry them over medium heat. I don’t blast them over high heat, because not only will they not cook through evenly, but you don’t get a chance to truly render down the fat. The skin also gets nice and crispy this way too! What kind of Sausages to use? The sausages are one of the main stars in this edible show, so it’s important to treat them right. For this recipe we’re going to be frying the sausages, mainly because you get a nice char, but also because you can use the leftover fat to create the onion gravy in the same pan (more on this in just a sec).
