Ingredients:
4 large potatoes, peeled and chopped
12 big fat sausage links
2 large onions, peeled and cut into chunks
ale or stout beer ( NOT beer!)
sugar ( if desired to balance the ale if it tastes bitter)
cornflour or bisto, to thicken the gravy
Directions:
Put the sausages and the onion chunks in an oven-proof dish or casserole.
Pour in just enough ale to barely cover the sausages.
Bake at 375F to 400F Fahrenheit for 45 minutes.
Meanwhile, cook and mash the potatoes – set aside and keep warm.
Remove the sausages from the baking dish and taste the liquid.
Add sugar if desired, season to taste, and thicken to make a gravy of the desired consistency with cornflour or Bisto.
Serve the sausages and potatoes on warm plates – pour gobs of gravy over both.
