Sausage and Colcannon Bake


If you read my last post, you will be aware that I love Pinterest. It's the best social media platform to get inspiration for anything and everything. I was scrolling through recipe ideas the other day when I came across this one that seemed like a delicious, warming home cooked meal. The original recipe is from Kitchen Sanctuary, and everything she makes looks insanely delicious!! (Her links are below).



Now, here is my version of this dish...


What you need:

6 Pork Sausages
Splash of Milk
4 White Potatoes
Knob of Butter
Big handful of Curly Kale
Salt & Pepper
4 Chopped Spring Onions
Mixed Herbs
1 Red Onion
Gravy
Half a punnet of Mushrooms                                                         
                             


How to:

- Peel and chop your potatoes. Boil them in a pan of water.

- Chop your spring onions and half the red onion. Put in a pan of water with the curly kale and boil.

- Chop the other half of your red onion, and chop the mushrooms too. Put in a frying pan with a drizzle of oil.

- Add your sausages to the frying pan with the mushrooms and onion. Season with mixed herbs. Fry off until brown.


- Boil your kettle and make your gravy. (I used onion gravy and made far too much because my brain can't comprehend portion control for making gravy).

- Preheat your oven to 200 degrees.

- Add the gravy to your pan of sausages.

- Once soft, drain your potatoes and add a knob of butter and splash of milk. Also season with salt and pepper and mash.

- Drain the kale and spring onions and mix into your mashed potatoes.


- Pour the sausage and gravy mix into a baking tray. (You will need a deeper one that I used because mine just exploded out of the dish and made a huge mess!)

- Add your colcannon mash on top and place in the oven for 20-30 minutes.

- Dish up and enjoy!!



My version didn't look the most appetising when dished up, but honestly it tasted delicious and Dan loved it so much, he went in for seconds. I will definitely be making this meal again.

Let me know how your cooking goes if you give this a try.

An Introduction

Now this is a story all about how my life got flipped turned upside down… No, I’m just joking! Well, this is a story about my life. It’s an on going story, so I can’t say for sure it won’t be flipped turned upside down, but I really hope it doesn’t go that way. I’m 21. I have a full time job. I have a boyfriend of 3 and a bit years, and we have just moved into our first home together. My story is all about how we’re growing up and how we’re dealing with all that life throws at us. It is so hard for young people growing up the ‘right way’ these days because every single person has an opinion on how you should be living. And every single person likes to voice their opinions to you, be it positive or not. In my case, they’re mostly not. Over the past few months, we have been planning our move. We didn’t really have a clue what we were doing (and we still don’t to be honest). But here is what we have figured out so far: -       -  Some house will NOT be ...

An Introduction: Part 2

List after list after list after list. This is what my life felt like the time between being accepted and moving day. We had booked to move on Saturday 28 th April. I had lists for kitchen essentials, lists of bathroom/toiletries, lists of bedroom furniture, lists for all other furniture and lists for food and cleaning supplies. Anything you can think of, I had a list for it. Where all these lists have now gone, I will never know! (If you’re needing help and you want to see what I put on my lists, let me know and I will post them!) My room seemed to get smaller by the day, and all our new home things had started overflowing onto the landing and the dining room of my Mum’s house. Home Bargains had become my favourite shop. They actually sell some lovely home ware for such great prices. I also really got into watch Brummy Mummy on YouTube. Her hauls are the best and I’m obsessed with her sense of humour. Emma, if you read this, please can we be friends? Thanks. Closer ...
