Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 sausages
- 800 g potatoes
- 50 g butter
- 150 ml milk
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 100 g ham
- 150 g cheddar cheese
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 300 ml onion gravy (optional)
Instructions
Peel and cut the potatoes into evenly sized chunks.
Place the potato chunks in a large pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Cook for 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
While the potatoes are cooking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the sausages to the skillet and cook for 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are browned and fully cooked through. Remove from heat and set aside.
Drain the cooked potatoes and return them to the pot.
Add the butter, milk, salt, and black pepper to the potatoes. Mash until the potatoes are smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Preheat your oven's broiler (grill function).
Transfer the mashed potatoes to an oven-safe dish and spread evenly.
Roughly chop the ham and sprinkle it over the mashed potatoes.
Grate the cheddar cheese and evenly distribute it over the ham and potatoes.
Place the dish under the broiler for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and golden brown.
Serve the mashed potatoes with the sausages and optional onion gravy drizzled on top or on the side.
