Sausage & mash pie

Bangers and mash are a firm favourite in my house, but I’m always a bit put off making it during the week as it creates a pile of washing-up. This recipe gives you the opportunity to bring everything together into one pie that can be made over the weekend and frozen, ready for when you don’t have time to cook from scratch. In my household, this pie is now more requested than the classic combination.

SERVES 4 PREP 20 mins COOK 1 hr 20 mins EASY

1 tbsp sunflower oil

8 pork sausages

25g butter

2 onions, finely sliced pinch of golden caster sugar

1 tbsp tomato purée

1 tbsp red wine vinegar

500ml beef stock peas, to serve (optional)
