Mash and Sausage Pie (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

01 - 1.5 cups cheddar cheese.
02 - 4.4 lbs white potatoes.
03 - 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce.
04 - 3 cups beef broth.
05 - 28 oz pork sausages (roughly 12 pieces).
06 - 14 oz onions, chopped into slices.
07 - 3 tablespoons butter.
08 - 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme.
09 - 1/2 cup red wine.
10 - Salt and pepper as you like.
11 - Olive oil as required.
12 - 4 tablespoons plain flour.
13 - 1/2 cup milk or cream.
14 - 4 tablespoons butter for mashing.
15 - 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard or your preferred kind.

# Instructions:

01 - Put potatoes in salted water and cook until they’re soft. Drain them and let them sit for 5 minutes to dry off.
02 - Mix potatoes with cheese, milk, butter, and mustard. Add your favorite seasoning to taste.
03 - Fry sausages until cooked through, then slice them at an angle after removing them.
04 - Using the sausage drippings, cook the onions over medium heat until they turn sweet and golden, about 15 minutes.
05 - Start with a roux made from butter and flour, slowly stir in broth and wine. Toss in seasonings and simmer it gently.
06 - Start with sausages and a coating of gravy in your baking dish. Let it set for a bit, then layer mashed potatoes over the top.
07 - Pop it in the oven at 200°C (390°F) for 20 minutes, or until your top gets golden and crispy.

# Notes:

01 - Put a baking tray under the dish in the oven in case of spills.
02 - Let the layers dry a little before assembling for the best finish.
03 - This dish works great prepared ahead and stored in the fridge.
