Bangers & Mash 

Beautiful dish Ian, love the red onion gravy love the way you've plated it, looks awesome!

I asked my Dad to make this today and he did, exactly the same as your why. Wish i could send you a picture. The flavours was outstanding. Thank you.

been a chef for a while now and always been taught that put potoato skin on into cold water bring to boil cook u till tender pill hot and then mash with butter on a medium heat on.the slove any reason you put them into.already boilimg water anything grows below the ground boil.cold anything grows above cook in already boiled water

0:42 dont need any oil / 0:58 actually you need oil...

Just elegant and easy steps. Good suggestions. Swear can smell the flavors.

This looks amazing! For comfort food I love a good beef stew cooked low and slow in the oven with a rosemary gremolata sprinkled over it just before serving 😋 I'm not a fan of thinking of white potatoes as an 'indulgence' though - the demonisation of the humble spud in favour of sweet potatoes is one of my bugbears!

Great video, so many variations on a classic sausage and mash meal with onion gravy. Xx

I like to do all of it in the same pan together and leave the sausages in the pan after browning and use chicken stock instead of beef. Rosemary, onions, red chilli, garlic. If I'm in a hurry ill use a Beurre Manie to thicken the gravy. Comes out lush.

I'm an American so comfort food is meatloaf with onions ,peppers, oats with tomato juice! And mash of course.😸😺😼

Looks amazing!!!! Who doesn't love bangers and mash

you've changed the way i'm gonna serve bangers and mash from now on, looks awesome like that

I will be trying out this recipe this coming weekend. Love your videos.

These look amazing, even for a dinner party with a couple of friends would be fantastic.

Your videos are so inspiring! I made your korean fried chicken recipe ones and it was absolutely amazing, and the sauce I've mare several times for other meals. Delicious 👌🏼 Can't wait to try out some more recipes of yours.

British mash does seem a different animal from American-style mashed potatoes. The main difference seems that British mash takes waxier potatoes, resulting in a different texture, which one would naturally be inclined to leave more lumpy, less smooth. In the U.S. when you make mashed potatoes, it goes something like this: peel and cut up the fluffiest (least waxy) potatoes you can find (usually russet, or Idaho, potatoes), boil them in well-salted water for 15 to 20 minutes or until fork-tender, then, after draining off the water, proceed to "scorch" them, which means to stir the potato pieces rapidly in the pot over high heat to evaporate as much water as possible - being careful of course not to literally scorch, or burn, them. Next comes relentless richness: first, lots and lots of butter, mashed directly into the hot potato pieces, followed often by generous dollops of sour cream, followed by either whole milk or cream (perhaps infused with onion, garlic, bay leaf and white pepper corns) stirred in until desired consistency is achieved, usually meaning fluffy and able to sustain peaks but without ever becoming soupy. The seasoning of choice for American-style mashed potatoes is white pepper, ideally freshly ground directly into the potatoes - lots and lots of white pepper. Finally, the idea with American-style mashed potatoes is to whip them until they are - no, not lumpy or textured like British mash - but fluffy and smooth. If you've made your mashed potatoes right, you should be able to do with them what Richard Dreyfuss did in Close Encounters Of The Third Kind: build Devil's Tower on your dinner plate, complete with fork-etched striations.

Can't beat this type of comfort food

Its best to chop the garlic in halve to bring flavour out

Tried it. Delicious.

I really like the new style of your videos! And of course the food looks incredible :3

Really cool Program.

This looks absolutely perfect 😻 will definitely try those red onions, looked so easy and could go with a lot of things! I know you're not a huge fan but my favourite comfort food without a doubt is risotto 🇮🇹🙌🏻

Brilliant, thanks for the video and excellent presentation of the dish.

You always manage to turn even the most basic meal into something fabulous and worthy of an Instagram photo!!!

Love it

Bangers n mash my favourite yum, my friend is a local farmer whose sausages are wicked will defo try this, Ian what make is your lovely copper pan please? My comfort food is either a fish finger or chip butty 🤗

Looks banging!

My comfort food is slow cooked pheasant pie and mash. My dad keeps pheasants so I'm lucky enough to get them farm fresh.

Wow!!!! Love sausage and mash. It's hard to find this English classic in the States. My favorite comfort food is probably ramen. But honestly, it depends on what cuisine im craving. Traditional Mexican tacos are definitely on the list as well as pasta with meatballs. Hahaha, ohhh just thought of another one...chicken pot pie. Alright, I'm done. Thank you for the video as always!

You should really try putting some freshly grated nutmeg, black pepper and finely chopped fresh thyme into your mashed potatoes - it makes mash soo much better!😍🤤

Looks fantastic, it's really hard to find a good low fat high meat sausage in the US, most are a fatty breakfast sausage. The best way to get what I want is to make my own. Fantastic looking meal. Comfort food has to be goulash. Or a spaghetti but the sauce had to come from my garden.

Love this.

This looks delicious! What qualifies as good quality sausage?

Looks incredible once again X

😍 died and gone to food heaven...love your video as I always do

Yummmy!

Gonna make this evening!looks fab

How good does this look!!

this is my comfort food ! or a good spaghetti bolognese

instead of sprigs can i use mint

Would it be messing the dish up, if mushrooms were added to this?

"Who would like a banger in the mouth? Oh, right, I forgot. Here in the States, you call it a sausage in the mouth."

What type/flavor of sausage do you typically use for this dish?

I am a novice cook. So it is two potatoes a person? And you DO add oil at the beginning.? Otherwise can’t wait to make this ...

Ever consider summer squash mash and turkey sausages?

What type of red wine would you recommend?

WARNING PEOPLE!!! DON'T WATCH THIS VIDEO...It will make you hungry...very very hungry.....sooooo hungry 🤤 Have you ever tried bangers and mash using andouille sausage? (I'm in New Orleans so spice is a given)

What would be a replacement for the sauce if i can t get my hands on wine?

This isn't radiohead

Lasagne!

Where are the baked beans ...?????

Chicken or beef madras??

I love a cheap sausage! Sorry but they taste great...

.... you didn't use all that amazingness in that pan the sausages cooked in... your gravy shall preform HARAKIRI.. it is the only way to move on bud

let's charge a bunch of squares a boatload of cash to pretend they are eating stoner food. lame

no one wants to eat pretentious bangers and mash, what a joke

That looks amazing. Will be making this meal on the weekend. My only concern, hubby will be wanting to know where the rest of his mash potato is, LOL
