Start by preparing the cauliflower mash. Cut the cauliflower head into florets and the potatoes into chunks. Steam or boil them together until tender, about 10-15 minutes.
Once cooked, drain well and place them back into the pot. Add 0.5 cup of skim milk, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Mash using a potato masher or an immersion blender until smooth. Adjust seasoning if needed.
In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken sausages and cook them for about 10 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are browned and cooked through.
While the sausages are cooking, prepare the onion gravy. Peel and thinly slice the brown onion.
In another skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in 1 tablespoon of balsamic vinegar and allow it to reduce slightly, about 1 minute, before adding 1 cup of chicken broth. Let simmer for another 5 minutes or until the mixture slightly thickens.
To serve, place a serving of cauliflower mash on each plate, top with two chicken sausages, and spoon the onion gravy over them. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
Enjoy your low-fat bangers and mash immediately for a delightful and comforting meal.
