Directions
- Boil water in a medium saucepan until it simmers, then set up the mash area.
- Wash the cauliflower, trim leaves, break into florets, and chop the stem; place in a bowl.
- In a skillet over medium-high heat, brown the sausages on all sides for a few minutes, then reduce the heat, add a splash of water, and cook through until heated or cooked through; transfer to a plate.
- Add the cauliflower to the boiling water and cook until very tender, about 6–7 minutes.
- Thinly slice the yellow onion into half rings and set aside.
- Return the sausages to the skillet, add butter and onion, and cook until the onion softens and begins to caramelize, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Drain the cauliflower, return it to the pot, and mash with garlic, butter, salt, and pepper until smooth or to your liking; keep warm.
- Stir cornstarch into the sliced onions, then pour in broth and simmer until the gravy thickens, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste; spoon over the mash and sausages when ready to serve.
Two tips
- Make ahead: mash the cauliflower and reheat with a splash of water when needed.
- Serving idea: swap parsley for chopped chives or a pinch of paprika for a light flavor variation.
