Bangers and Mash (Plant Based)
This recipe is inspired by a brewery in Bellingham, Washington where I first tried vegetarian bangers and mash. By making the mashed potatoes in the Instant Pot, dinner is ready in about 30 minutes. Feel free to try other veggies in place of the peas – roasted brussel sprouts are a good choice
Ingredients
Mushroom Gravy
- 1 cup vegetable broth
- 2 tbsp reduced-sodium soy sauce
- 8 oz mushrooms of any kind stemmed, and sliced
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- 1/2 tsp dried basil
- 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
Mashed Potatoes (Instant Pot)
- 1 large russet potato peeled and cut into 6 equal pieces
- 1 cup cold water
- 1/2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
Bangers and peas
- 2 vegan sausages I generally use Field Roast Apple Sage
- 2 cups frozen peas I’ve also used roasted brussel sprouts – so good!
Instructions
Mushroom Gravy
- Combine the broth and soy sauce in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer. Add the mushrooms and simmer gently for 10 minutes, or until done to your liking.
- Combine the arrowroot cornstarch with just enough water to dissolve in a cup or small container. When the water and soy sauce mixture is at a steady simmer, slowly whisk in the cornstarch, stirring constantly until the liquid is thickened.
- Remove from the heat and whisk in the basil and optional nutritional yeast. Use at once.
Mashed Potatoes (Instant Pot)
- Put 1 cup (250ml) cold water and a steamer rack in Instant Pot Pressure Cooker. Place quartered potatoes on the steamer rack. Pressure cook at High Pressure for 8 minutes, then Quick Release.
- Mash Potatoes: Open the lid carefully. Drain potatoes and mash with olive oil and dijon mustard.
Bangers & Peas
- Cut sausages in half horizontally then again lengthwise. Saute in frying pan.
- Heat peas using favourite method.
- Once everything is ready, make your bowls (potatoes topped with bangers and peas and then gravy).
Notes
