  1. MAKE THE MASH

    Place the almonds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside. Place the potato pieces in a pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook until soft, 15-20 minutes. Drain and return to the pot. Add a knob of butter (optional) and a splash of water or milk (optional). Mash with a fork, season, and cover.

  2. HASTE WITH THE PASTE

    Boil the kettle. Dilute the stock with 150ml of boiling water. Place the cornflour in a small bowl and gradually mix in 5ml of diluted stock until a runny paste forms. Set aside. Place a saucepan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil or a knob of butter (optional). When hot, fry the sliced onion until caramelised, 8-10 minutes (shifting occasionally).

  3. SIMPLY DELISH SAUSAGES

    Place a clean pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the sausages until browned and cooked through, 10-15 minutes (shifting as they colour). Remove from the heat and rest in the pan for 5 minutes.

  4. SAUCY

    When the onion is caramelised, add ½ the grated garlic to the pan and fry until fragrant, 30-60 seconds (shifting continuously). Whisk in the remaining stock and the cornflour paste. Lower the heat and simmer until thick, 6-8 minutes (stirring occasionally). Season and add a sweetener. Remove from the heat, cover, and set aside.

  5. MINTY BEANS

    Return the pan used for the sausages to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil (if necessary). When hot, fry the halved green beans until starting to char, 4-5 minutes (shifting constantly). In the final minute, add the remaining grated garlic. Remove from the pan and toss with ½ the chopped mint and ½ the toasted nuts. Season and cover.

  6. TANGY SALAD

    In a salad bowl, combine the tangy dressing with a sweetener, seasoning, and a drizzle of olive oil. Toss through the shredded leaves and the cucumber half-moons. Set aside.

  7. FAN FAVOURITE FOR A REASON

    Serve up the creamy mash topped with the pork bangers. Pour over the gravy. Side with the minty green beans and the dressed salad. Garnish with the remaining mint and nuts.
