Sausages with Mash and Onion Gravy

Sausages with Mash and Onion Gravy is one of my favourite recipes. Thick onion gravy with soft mash potato and perfectly cooked Cumberland Sausages is in my top 5 recipes. This main dish is ideal all year round and is filling, comforting and incredibly tasty. I serve with frozen peas for additional colour, flavour and texture.
