Mashed Potatoes:
- 3 russet potatoes peeled & cut into thirds
- ⅓ cup milk
- 3 tbsp butter to taste
- Sea salt and freshly cracked pepper to taste
Bratwurst:
- Cooking spray
- 5 Bratwurst sausages or sausage of choice
Instructions
- Make the onion gravy by placing the butter and olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Add the minced garlic and flour, then cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute. Slowly add the beef stock and Worcestershire sauce while stirring constantly. Reduce the heat and simmer for 10-12 minutes or until the sauce thickens. Taste and season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste.
- Meanwhile, make the mashed potatoes by cooking potato chunks in a large pot of salted boiling water until fork-tender.
- Warm the milk and butter in the microwave for 30 seconds.
- Drain the potatoes, then return them to the pan.
- Add the milk/butter to the potatoes along with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste.
- Mash using a hand masher until creamy and smooth. Taste and re-season if needed. Place the lid on the potatoes until ready to serve.
- Meanwhile, cook the sausages by heating a grill pan coated with olive oil cooking spray over medium-high heat.
- Add the bratwurst to the pan and cook, flipping occasionally, for 10-12 minutes, making sure all sides of the bratwurst get grill marks and the sausages are cooked through.
- To serve, spoon some potatoes into a bowl, then top with onion gravy and a bratwurst. Sprinkle the top with freshly chopped parsley.
- Serve immediately. Enjoy.
