Sausage and mash tastes better with this easy 3-step homemade gravy
Transform your sausage and mash with this easy homemade gravy recipe — richer, smoother and even better than Bisto.
“It's hard to explain just how deliciously moreish this gravy is - it's not just a condiment but equal to whatever you're smothering it over - I could honestly eat it by the spoonful.”
Autumn is progressing, bringing with it colder and darker evenings. When there's a chill in the air, people seek out comfort food - and what could be better than sausages and mash?
It's the ideal, straightforward supper and a genuine British staple. However, in my view, what takes it from good to exceptional is the gravy.
I'm aware many people prefer Bisto for their gravy - indeed my partner is amongst them - but I assure you this gravy is far superior.
I prepared this gravy last night, using a recipe from RecipeTinEats, and even my Bisto-devoted boyfriend was won over. It requires slightly more effort, but is absolutely worth every moment.
It's not only me who adores it - comments on the recipe liken it to the renowned KFC gravy and describe it as the perfect accompaniment.
