Irish Bangers & Mash

A traditional Irish recipe - sausage & mashed potatoes. This recipe uses beef broth and cabbage.

Ingredients:

• 2 pounds (32 oz.) antibiotic-free pork sausages;
• 2 cups beef broth (or make your own with Organic Grass-Fed Beef Bones)
• 1 pound potatoes, peeled and cubed;
• 2 cups chopped cabbage (or shredded);
• 2 1/2 cups chopped onion;
• 1/4 cup milk;
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter;
• Salt & pepper (to taste);
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch;

Preparation:

1. In a medium saucepan, cover the potatoes with water. Bring to a boil and simmer 15 minutes, or until tender.
2. As the potatoes are cooking, melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over low heat. Add cabbage and 1/2 cup onion. Sauté until soft, but not brown. Remove from heat and reserve.
3. Drain the cooked potatoes and mash by hand. Incorporate the milk and butter into the potatoes until well mixed, and fold in the cooked cabbage and onions. Season to taste.
4. Fry sausage in another skillet over medium-high heat, until browned. Remove the sausage from the pan.
5. In the pan juices, sauté 2 cups chopped onion until lightly browned. Add beef broth, bring to a boil, and simmer 5 minutes. Thicken with cornstarch.
