Ingredients

6 pork sausages ( Cumberland or your favorite )

2 tablespoons olive oil

4 large Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and diced

1 cup milk

4 tablespoons unsalted butter

Salt and pepper to taste

2 large onions, thinly sliced

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

1 cup chicken broth

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (optional)

Fresh thyme leaves, for garnish

Instructions

Prepare the Mash: Place the diced Yukon Gold potatoes in a large pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot.

Add Butter and Milk: Mash the potatoes while adding the milk and butter. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Keep warm.

Cook the Sausages: In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sausages and cook until golden and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes, turning them occasionally. Remove the sausages and set aside.

Make the Onion Gravy: In the same skillet, add the sliced onions and cook slowly over medium heat until caramelized, about 10-15 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent burning.

Thicken the Gravy: Sprinkle the flour over the onions and stir to combine. Cook for another minute, then gradually pour in the chicken broth, stirring continuously until the gravy thickens. Add Worcestershire sauce if using, and season with salt and pepper. Add a bit of water if the gravy becomes too thick.

Serve: Spoon the creamy mashed potatoes onto plates. Place 2-3 sausages on top and generously ladle the onion gravy over the whole dish.

Finish with Thyme: Garnish with fresh thyme leaves for a pop of color and flavor.
