Bangers and Mash -

 

Start with ​Slow Cooked Brats

​

Makes 8 servings

Total Time 1 hour 30 minutes

​

Ingredients

12 bratswursts - uncooked

2 tsp. mustard seeds

1 tsp. cumin seeds

6 Tbsp. unsalted butter (3/4 stick)

4 medium white or yellow onions

1​1/2 Tbsp. dark brown sugar

2 12 ounce bottles of brown ale

Salt and pepper to taste

12 large brats buns (you can add mash potatoes also - see below)

​

Directions

Crush the cumin and mustard seeds in a mortar and pestle. If you do not have a mortar and pestle, place the seeds in a plastic bag and crush seeds with a rolling pin or unopened bottle of beer. You may drink the beer and dispose of the bottle once the seeds are crushed!

Melt the butter in a large, wide, pot over medium heat. Place the brats as space allows on the bottom of the pot and brown. Repeat as needed and set the brats aside. Brown the brats, turning occasionally, until all sides are browned.

Reduce the heat to low, add all ingredients, and salt and pepper to taste. Cook, for about 50 minutes, stirring occasionally, until onions are soft and brown. Serve in a toasted bun with onions and mustard.  

Enjoy!
