Bangers and Mash Recipe
Sausage with Onion Gravy and Mashed Potato popularly known as “Bangers and Mash” is one of the greatest of all comfort foods.
“Bangers” refers to the sausages – named as such because back then, sausages would burst open “with a bang!” when cooked unless you pricked with a fork. Even now, they still do.
