Bangers and mash
Pork sausages and mashed potato with a homemade onion-and-beef-stock gravy.

About Bangers and mash
Bangers and mash is the British combination of sausages, mashed potato and gravy. Nagi Maehashi's selected version uses thick pork sausages, the choice she identifies for the classic dish.
Sausage drippings enrich an onion-and-garlic gravy made with beef stock. Salt and black pepper provide seasoning, while dark soy sauce is an optional colouring addition rather than the main flavour.
Browned sausages are served with a generous coating of thickened gravy, mashed potato and peas. The potato preparation remains a named accompaniment, while optional butter supplements the gravy's cooking fat when needed.
