Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add sausages and cook for about 10–12 minutes until browned and cooked through. Remove sausages and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter and add 2 thinly sliced onions. Sauté for 15–20 minutes until caramelized and golden brown.
  3. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of flour over caramelized onions, stirring to coat. Cook for 1-2 minutes, then gradually pour in ½ cup of dry white wine while stirring to deglaze the pan.
  4. Add 2 cups of beef stock, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1 tablespoon of balsamic vinegar, and 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard. Stir well and bring to a simmer, cooking for about 10–15 minutes.
  5. Return the browned sausages to the skillet, nestling them into the gravy. Let simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through.
  6. Serve by spooning creamy mashed potatoes onto plates, topping them with sausage and gravy. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with peas.
