**RECIPE, SERVES TWO**
300-400g (.5-.75 lb) fresh sausages
400-500g (.5 lb) potatoes, I like Yukon Gold
1 bunch green onions
1 big shallot (or two smaller ones)
oil
cornstarch
Marmite
mustard
butter
milk
salt
pepper
Cut the potatoes into small chunks and get them boiling in water.
Peel and thinly slice the shallots, then get them cooking in a little oil over medium/medium-low heat, stirring constantly until they are brown and soft, about 5 minutes.
Push the shallots all the way to the side of the pan, and push the pan just off the burner so that they are no longer over direct heat. Put the sausages in the pan and roll them around until they are thoroughly browned, at least 5 minutes.
Deglaze the pan with enough water to give you the quantity of gravy you desire. Stir in big spoonful of Marmite and a little one of mustard. Grind in a bunch of pepper. In a bowl, mix a couple tablespoons of cornstarch with a little water to make a smooth slurry, then drizzle it into the gravy until you get the thickness you want - you might not need all of the slurry. Be sure to stir the gravy constantly as you drizzle, or the slurry will clump.
Simmer the sausages in the gravy until cooked inside, at least 160ºF, 70ºC. Taste the gravy for seasoning, and add salt if it needs it.
While you're waiting, slice up the green onions, being sure to slice very thinly in the white end.
When the potatoes are easily pierced by a fork, drain them. Throw in a big knob of butter, a little splash of milk and pinch of salt. Mash the potatoes, adding more milk if they're too thick. Taste for seasoning and maybe add more salt. Stir in the green onions while the potatoes are still very hot so they cook a little bit.

When watching other cooking youtubers, I think "I could make this one day".
With Adam's video I often think "I'm gonna make this tomorrow"
Yes! I don't what it is, but Adam's videos made me actually cook. I watched every episode of good eats and never made a sandwich, but a few weeks of Adam's stuff and I officially took over Sunday dinners!
this year alone mans has literally inspired my valentine's day dinner, my anniversary dinner, my anniversary dessert, my most common weeknight dinner, and probably my birthday dinner next week too
Well said.
Its purely because he isn't going 5 extra miles to order shit online - or buy expensive tools - or expensive ingredients thats apperently "needed" in those other youtuber dishes, Adam is the home cook kinda guy who wants EVERYONE with even only just a heat source to be able to make good tasting food.. If I had to put it into tiers Adam is like the tier 1 youtube cook and people like Babish and Joshua Weismenn are the tier 3 youtube cooks who are spending ridiculous amounts of money on overprices meals

why did I read this like Johnny Cash saying “When you get the blues, c’mon get rhythm”
Oh hai fren
This was a weirdly nostalgic one for me.
When I was a kid, my mom started going to school nights to get her teaching degree - so two nights a week, my dad would make dinner. Friday was easy (pizza), but the other night, very often, was sausages, instant mashed potatoes, and canned corn. It was cheap, it was well inside his cooking comfort zone, and (a thing I didn't realize until later), it was one of his very favorite dinners AND one of my mom's least favorite.
Fast-forward four decades or so, and I just made this. I think it's already one of my favorite quick dinners, but it's very much NOT one of my girlfriend's - which is a nice continuity, I think.
I was skeptical when the Marmite went in. Yeah, yeah, glutamates, umami, flavor bomb, layering, etc., I know - it still smelled like an organic chemistry lab failure. But somehow it all worked. (Oscar Wilde said, "The ugly can be beautiful; the pretty, never." Few realize he was talking about Marmite.)
I don't know why female hate bangers and mash with Marmite, probably because Marmite as an umami boost instead of something else, and it's probably cheap stuff, or maybe I am over thinking it
@@giahuynguyenkim6389 You are.
@@lordmuhehe4605 spending any time thinking about why women do or don't do anything is over thinking it. 😂
I know its not a popular opinion, and probably especially not on a cooking channel. But good instant mash is way underrated! Maybe its because its what I grew up eating, but I prefer it over "real"!
We are not supposed to admit that, but one thing I have learned "you do you" and I do that if I am having mash :)

Never thought I would see Marmite, Colman's mustard AND champ in one of your videos as a Northern Irish person. The mustard works really well in the mashed potato itself too. I never even thought to use marmite in gravy before so thanks for that. I fully expect Adam to be drinking Bovril at a football match next to complete his honourary Brit status.
Very surprised at champ tbh
The champ though!!! Channeling my wee granny from Derry. Marmite in the gravy is not new, it just gives it a bit of something that makes it gorgeous 😍

Fun fact: literally the only time I've seen something on sale here in the UK as "bangers" on its own it was a company so cheap they didn't even meet the minimum meat threshold to legally call their product "sausages" (a ridiculously low ~30%) so they used the term "banger" instead.
"Bangers and mash" is common in both the ready-meal aisle and pub menus, but I've never seen anyone selling actual sausages as anything other than "sausages".
It's probably a labelling trick to make it more exotic. What American would care about Irish or British sausages when you can have Irish or Sausage bangers?
Well, yeah actually. The reason we call them bangers is that they were filled with stuff like extra water during times of ration. These steam pockets would explode with a bang, so that's why they were called bangers. So, 30% meat is probably the closest thing to a real banger that you can get today

Green onions are honestly the easisest way to add a "healthy look" to almost any food. I love them in soups and in omelettes.
Made bangers and mash this evening. Didn’t have any marmite so substituted with soy sauce, dijon for Colman’s mustard, was absolutely delicious. Cheers Adam, great but simple recipe.

Being from Ireland, I enjoyed this a lot, although Ive never seen a sausage that looks like that in my 25 years of life here! Your mash were absolutely perfect though!

I cook bangers and mash in a similar way. Though I have some carrots boiling with the potatoes plus peas near the end. If you time it right, you can use the water from the boiled potatoes (and carrots and peas) to make the gravy. I find that I use less corn starch that way. It also doubles as using a basic vegetable stock and the carrots brings up the sweetness in the gravy.
A trick for not having your sausages curl up,
is to flatten them and sear the outside of the "curl" end first.
It allows for more even browning on all sides, when done properly.
Looks like Adam does this well in the video.
It is why his sausages turned out so straight.
(just thought I would point out the hack)
Glad to see ireland getting some representation, we useually only get talked about as englands vietnam

What ? I will fight you for your shoe laces
You've done us proud Adam! That gravy is exactly how my grandma makes it.
Looks great. It’s also nice to see someone outside of Britain not instantly dissing our food! You’d be surprised nowadays, British chefs started upping their game because of our reputation for serving bland, grey slop and have been coming up with great, classically inspired dishes with a world cuisine twist for a while now.
Yes! I love adding Marmite (or Vegemite) to meat dishes for extra umami, I use it in mince on toast, Stews, meat pies, basically anything with beef or lamb that has a sauce / gravy
So I had a go at this with no prior lunch knowledge. I had to make some substitutes; replaced the shallots with thinly sliced onion, carrot, parsnip. Replaced the marmite with cheapo gravy granules. Kept the woushshhshtersher. Used Lincolnshire sausages for the sausages. Used just mash instead of champ.
End result was delightful. Following instructions here for the assorted vedge was a great idea; cook 'em all up and move them to the side so the sausages can party. This helped make the carrots and parsnips softer too. The idea of smushing the cornflour with your finger was really good.
Easy cleanup, simple cooking, filling meal. This video is so SO good. Thank you!

My mom makes something similar with bratwurst! Caramelize onions and brown the brats, add a can of beer and a packet of brown gravy mix, cook until the sausages are cooked through. It's great on a sandwich, with pierogi, or really any carb.
As a South African that has marmite with everything this gravy is amazing

@@kindlin British Isles
@@kindlin There's an outdated term for these islands called 'the British isles'. This is because Britain invaded and colonised Ireland. Irish people gained independence and don't like this term because we're not British. We're culturally different and up until about 150 years ago spoke a different language.
@@ciangargan Nah, they've been called the British Isles for 2000 years, it's just that the term has become politicised in Ireland.
The word "Great" originally meant "Big", as in "Big Britain", the largest of the isles.
@@Apeing510 That's not true. The term originated In the 16th century.
This meal is so simple and so iconic for me. As a kid the local pub restaurant would serve this and you'd get a mountain of mash with sausages sticking out of the sides and they'd make a well in the top and pour in the gravy like a volcano. It was always my favourite as a kid. Incredibly nostalgic

As an Irishman, this is NOT an Irish meal.
But on the other hand, my mammy made it a lot, and its fecking delicious.
Good work Mr Ragusea
Well of course not, it's a British meal using Irish recipes and ingredients for the sausages and mash.
add 1-2 egg yolks to the mash. trust me it makes the difference. i learned that from my mother, i live in england
What difference does it make? Just curious.
@@ophello it becomes way more savoury.
It doesn't taste of egg when you do it if you mash it in and mix it.
It just brings out way more of the flavour.
I've had to eat mash without egg yolks for a while now because of my gf, and man did I notice the difference when I done it with egg today.
Seriously its one of those things you HAVE to try
I'm irish and I love this recipe! Usually for extras I would use some rashers and white pudding soaked in the gravy! Iv never heard of green onions in mash potatoes but I will try it next time😍
OK we need a map of where champ occurs and where not in ireland i figure champ is an ulster food
What are rashers and white pudding?
Rashers are like bacon, and white pudding is pigs blood made into a sauce shape
@@ophelloYear late, but thinly sliced back bacon and a kind of bloodless blood sausage respectively
I'd add black pepper to the mash as well. Gives it a little something extra. As for the sausage I'd seriously consider using a variety of English or Irish sausage with the meal. The herbs and spices used in them match the flavour profile of the entire meal perfectly. My preferred is a Cumberland sausage (pepper, thyme, sage, nutmeg and cayenne with rusk to bind). Italian sausage is, obviously, amazing, but I have a feeling it'll feel a bit detached from the gravy and potatoes.
for mashed potatoes i use sourcream most of the time, technicaly it is the sane as milk and butter and it makes the taste more distinct
Made it last night, after some difficulty sourcing Marmite (Cost Plus World Market had it). Like it! We used Field Roast brand vegetarian sausages. Make lots gravy, a full cup of water at least.
Onion mash is my favourite. As a Brit I've never made Marmite gravy, though I've used Bovril. Have to try it now! Bangers and Mash is a fantastic meal when done right, and I love it even more because there's no recipe I know of where garlic can be snuck in. Edit: I'd have two sausages though :)

Hey, that champ reminds me. The best Irish soda bread I ever made was pretty much a traditional recipe, but instead of raisins or currents, I put diced green onion, jalapeno, and aged cheese. Absolutely worth trying yourself.
One of my simple faves. I tend to use Vegemite instead of Marmite, but whichever. And Worcestershire sauce instead of salt in the gravy. And a splash of Guinness, which you know, once opened, I guess I just have to drink with the meal. Such hardship. I've never done green onions in the mash.

Brooo. I use marmite as an ingredient in sauces and gravy all the time. Spread on toast it's a bit meh. Too intense imo. But used to boost the umami in sauces, condiments etc. It's so so good. I love it as an ingredient in an umami rich glaze to go with beef burgers for example

Hey Adam, I've been cooking for god knows how long, but there's this thing with shallots i never understood. Lots of french recipes state to use shallots specifically but i've never understood the difference in taste between shallots and regular onions (yeah they're sweeter, but nothing about them is otherwise extraordinary, to me at least). Can you do a video about these weirdly specific ingredients (shallots, bay leaf, paprika)?
I think I heard somebody saying it's usually more convenient to change the amount of people a dish serves when you use shallots simply because they're smaller.
What would you use instead of paprika? Or like how is paprika specific?
@@nicovastagh4610 in a sense that what's the purpose of it? Is it just for color? Because it doesn't have a noticeable taste or aroma

Oh man, I would love to be your neighbour.
The tough part for me is actually finding a sausage that tastes like a British banger. They used to sell the Saag brand bangers in my local grocery stores, but stopped carrying them. Now all I can use is some type of bratwurst or similar sausage, but they're not seasoned or textured the same. I'm half tempted to just make my own and freeze them, but that's kind of a pain.
Just look for Cumberland sausages, I’m from the UK and honestly any sausage will do there is no definitive “banger” I think the only sausages sold as bangers are for the poor lol they don’t have enough meat to be legal sausages. Honestly none of the sausages you mentioned are British, the main two types are plain sausage and Cumberland sausage.
I honestly thought he just titled “banger mash” lmaoo
I thought it was "Bangers & Smash".
Adam, Irishman here. It sounds so dumb but I can't even begin to thank you enough for calling them the Anglo-Celtic Isles. The term British Isles is outdated imperialist bullshit, please take a leaf from Adams book. (intentional or not hahahaha)
You aren't the first to mention this here, but I know them as the British-Irish isles (Brits-Ierse eilanden), though admittedly often shortened to British Isles.
Is there that much friction between both isles still? Or are tensions rising again due to brexit and the issue of the border between the republic and northern Ireland?
@@Tinky1rs it's more that they genuinely made up the term to act like they owned us. It'd be like Germany calling Germany and Poland "The German Landmass". Its just weird as hell. Friction is a little higher because of brexit, but there will always be tension while the British own part of Ireland
@@Tinky1rs there isn't tension between the islands, the only tension is a few silly people in Northern Ireland
@@eoghancasserly3626 the name isn't exactly made up, similar terms have been around for a while. When exactly do you think they made it up?
And also NI exists in the UK because that's what they have decided, and it's perfectly fine if they change their minds. We don't need people acting like it's very existence must cause problems.

The British would say "Spring Onions" instead of Green Onions.
