I don’t have a video for this recipe.
If I had a photo, I would most certainly use it. That is... unless the photo I have sucks. For now, you'll just have to picture a big heaping helping of
Bangers & Mash Flatbread
...in your mind.
Bangers & Mash Flatbread

Bangers & Mash Flatbread

I've been a fan of classic bangers & mash since the first time I had them. And if they're good just as they are - they had to be insane as a flatbread done with a little California twist.

Ingredients

Pickled Onions

  • 1 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 teasp

Mash

  • 4 Yukon Gold potatoes, 1.5 - 2 pounds roughly
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1-2 minced chipotle peppers
  • Pinch kosher salt & pepper

Gravy

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 1/2 cup beef broth, plus a little extra
  • 1/3 cup fire-roasted salsa or chipotle salsa
  • 1 teaspoon dark soy sauce, optional but nice if you have it for color & flavor

Flatbread

  • 4 bangers, or your favorite pork sausages
  • 2 flatbreads
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • Chopped cilantro for garnish

Directions

Pickled Onions

  1. Bring all ingredients to a boil, stirring until sugar & salt are dissolved
  2. Put onions into a mason jar and pour brine over the top - set aside

Mash

  1. Peel, then diced potatoes into even pieces, and boil until soft enough to poke a knife into
  2. Drain well, then mash and add the butter, sour cream, chipotles and salt & pepper - mix well to combine - keep warm

Gravy

  1. Melt butter in a small pot and add flour, mix to combine
  2. Whisk in the broth until a smooth, then stir in the salsa and soy sauce - mix, adding a little more broth or water if you want it thinner

Flatbread

  1. Grill bangers until done, any way you like then slice diagonally
  2. Grill or griddle flatbread on both sides
  3. Build*: flatbread, spread on some mash, top with some cheese then melt under a broiler, add the sausages, a good drizzle of the gravy, red onions and finally a little cilantro

* The other option would be to build like this: flatbread, mash, bangers, cheese THEN melt the top, add the onions and cilantro and serve the gravy on the side for dipping. I liked seeing the sausages, but do what works best for you.
