Ingredients

• 8 pieces whole pork sausages (preferably Irish-style)
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 large, thinly sliced onion
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
• 1 cup beef stock
• 0.5 cup dark ale (optional)
• 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter.

Step 2

2. Once the butter has melted, add the sausages to the pan. Cook them gently, turning occasionally, for about 10-12 minutes or until they are browned all over and cooked through. Remove from the pan and set aside.

Step 3

3. In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of butter. Add the sliced onions and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 8-10 minutes until they are soft and golden.

Step 4

4. Sprinkle the flour over the onions and stir well, allowing the flour to cook for about 1 minute.

Step 5

5. Gradually add the beef stock and dark ale (if using), stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Simmer the mixture for 2-3 minutes until the gravy thickens.

Step 6

6. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Taste the gravy and adjust the seasoning if needed.

Step 7

7. Return the cooked sausages to the skillet, nestling them into the onion gravy. Simmer for 5 more minutes to heat the sausages through and allow the flavors to meld.

Step 8

8. Serve the Irish Sausages Bangers hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired. Pair with mashed potatoes or crusty bread to soak up the delicious onion gravy.
