Equipment
Ingredients
- 6 pork sausages (see Notes)
For the gravy:
- 1 tsp sunflower or vegetable oil
- 1 (3.9 oz) onion (approx. 190g) halved and thinly sliced
- 1.5 tsp caster sugar
- 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 0.25 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tbsp plain flour
- 350 ml (1 ½ cups) chicken stock
- salt and freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Heat the grill to high, however, if using your air fryer, wait until step 3.
- Make the gravy - heat the oil over a medium heat in a medium a saucepan. Add the sliced onion and cook slowly on a low to medium heat for 15 minutes, until they are soft and caramelised, stirring occasionally. Add the sugar, balsamic vinegar and Worcestershire sauce and cook for 5 minutes, until sticky.
- Grill the sausages according to the packet instructions (normally 12 to 15 minutes, turning every 3 to 4 minutes). Or, if using your air fryer, either broil at 200C for 12 minutes, or air fry at 180C for 15 minutes.
- To finish the gravy, stir the flour into the onions to make a paste and cook for 1.5 minutes. Increase the heat to medium and pour in the stock, stirring continuously, a little at a time, until you have a smooth, thick sauce. Season, to taste, and reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes.
- Serve the sausages with the gravy and some mashed potatoes or mustard mash and extra vegetables on the side, if you like.
Notes
- Vegetarian option - use plant-based sausages and vegetable stock for the gravy.
- Gluten-free option - replace flour with cornflour or a gluten-free flour blend.
- Herbs - add fresh thyme or rosemary to the gravy, for depth.
- Sausage variations - try different types of sausages, such as pork, chicken or spicy Italian, to change the flavour profile.
