For a richer flavor, consider using bone broth instead of water. A pinch of smoked paprika can add depth and smokiness to the gravy. Serve hot over mashed potatoes, creamy polenta, or buttered egg noodles. Adjust the amount of salt and pepper according to your preference. For a vegetarian option, substitute the pork sausage with plant-based sausage.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
5 mins
Pre-cook the sausages: In a large pan, boil the sausage links for 5 minutes to render some fat and plump them up. Drain well and gently peel off the skins. Roughly chop the sausages into bite-sized pieces. (5 minutes)
02
Step
5 mins
Sauté the onions: Heat olive oil in a large, deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until softened and golden brown, about 8-10 minutes. (10 minutes)
03
Step
10 mins
Create the gravy base: Remove the skillet from the heat. Sprinkle the flour over the softened onions and stir continuously until well combined, forming a smooth paste. Gradually add the hot water, stirring constantly to prevent lumps. (5 minutes)
04
Step
2 mins
Simmer the gravy: Return the skillet to the heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally. Add the beef bouillon cubes, Worcestershire sauce, and tomato paste. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix well until the bouillon cubes have dissolved. (5 minutes)
05
Step
3 mins
Combine and simmer: Reduce the heat to low, add the chopped, cooked sausages to the gravy. Cover the skillet and simmer gently for 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together beautifully. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. (20 minutes)
