Method

  1. Peel and chop the potatoes, then boil for 15–20 minutes until tender.
  2. Fry the sausages in the oil over a medium-high heat for about 8 minutes, turning, until cooked through. Set aside.
  3. You want a thin layer of fat left in the pan, so top up with some of the butter if needed.
  4. Add the sliced onion and garlic and cook for about 4 minutes until golden.
  5. Stir in the flour and cook for a minute, stirring all the time.
  6. Make up the stock with the cube and water, then whisk it in gradually, then add the soy.
  7. Simmer for 2–3 minutes until the gravy thickens, then season.
  8. Mash the potatoes with the rest of the butter and the milk, and cook the peas for 3 minutes.
  9. Serve the sausages on the mash with the peas and plenty of gravy.
Tip: Take the gravy off slightly thinner than you want it, because it keeps thickening as it stands.
