Whole30 Bangers & Mash (Sausages with Gravy)
Delicious sausages with onion gravy served over the best creamy cauliflower mash – lovingly known as Bangers and Mash by the British. This Whole30 Bangers & Mash is the ultimate comfort food made healthy. Rich, flavorful onion gravy poured over perfectly browned sausage and creamy low carb cauliflower mash.
Gravy
The gravy only calls for five ingredients, but it is loaded with flavor! I make it in the same pan that the sausages are cooked in to keep building on that lovely flavor. The onions and garlic get sautéed in the pan and then the beef broth and tapioca starch turn it into a rich, delicious gravy.
- Sausage Drippings – these are the beautiful brown bits left at the bottom of the pan after the sausages are cooked. Sautéing the onions and garlic in those drippings creates so much flavor.
- Onions & Garlic – The base aromatics for the sauce. I like to slice the onion so you get more flavor texture in each bite.
- Beef Broth – I love to use homemade bone broth to give this recipe even more rich flavor and to keep it Whole30 compliant.
- Tapioca Starch – This is in place of the flour that the traditional recipe calls for. It helps thicken the gravy, but a little goes a long way.
You can use whatever sausages you prefer for this recipe. I like to use pork sausages because it goes so well with the onion gravy and is a little more traditional. If you are keeping this strictly Whole30, be sure to read labels for added sugars.
I serve the bangers (sausages lol) over my creamy cauliflower mash to keep it low carb, but you could also use my Instant Pot Mashed Potatoes.
