Ingredients:

  • 4 vegan sausages (your choice of flavor)
  • 4 large potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 1/2 cup of unsweetened almond milk (or any plant-based milk)
  • 2 tablespoons vegan butter
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 onions, thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups of vegetable broth
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free option)
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar

Instructions:

  1. Cook the vegan sausages according to package instructions until browned and heated through. Set aside and keep warm. In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the cubed potatoes and cook until fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.
  2. While the potatoes are cooking, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook until caramelized, about 15-20 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
  3. Sprinkle flour over the caramelized onions and garlic, stirring to combine. Cook for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste. Gradually whisk in the vegetable broth, soy sauce, dried thyme, and balsamic vinegar, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Simmer the gravy until thickened, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Drain the cooked potatoes and return them to the pot. Add vegan butter and almond milk, then mash until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Serve the sausages alongside a generous serving of creamy mashed potatoes, smothered in the rich onion gravy.
  6. Enjoy this delicious dish as a comforting and satisfying meal that’s sure to please vegans and non-vegans alike!
