Instructions

1 Pour olive oil into a large soup pot and heat over medium heat for a minute then
place onions into warm oil. Use a wooden spoon to occasionally stir the onions
while they turn a beautiful golden color. Just before the onions reach golden
perfection, but after they've begun to soften, add the condensed beef stock to
the pot and stir to blend it with the onions.
2 Add your Guinness to the pot. This is strong stuff so use your judgement with
the amount you add. I like to add it early like this to allow the alcohol to
"cook-off" before adding my other ingredients. Allow this to cook over a low
boil for about 2 minutes. (In my opinion this takes the "edge" off of it.)
3 Next, add in your chopped carrots and cabbage.
4 Pour in your beef stock and stir in your English mustard and Worcestershire
sauce. Allow to simmer for about 10 minutes. Drop in sausages and simmer for an
additional 10 minutes or so. (My sausages were pre-cooked so they didn't require
a long cooking time.)
5 Fill a large soup pot with water and place potatoes in pot. Bring to a boil.
Boil uncovered for 12+/- minutes. (Depending on the size of your chopped
potatoes cooking time may vary). Cook until the potato can be easily pierced
with a fork. Drain and return to pot.
6 Chop butter into chunks and drop into pot with potatoes. Pour milk in and add
salt & pepper.
7 Mash the potatoes! A potato masher really is my favorite tool for this. Once the
potatoes are thoroughly squished, a rubber spatula is handy for a quick blend.
Be careful to not overwork your potatoes. A few good mashes and then a couple of
turns with the spatula are all you need.
8 Place potatoes on plate and spoon bangers and veggies over the potatoes with the
broth. Garnish with a bit of parsley for an extra pop of green. A loaf of a
crusty is a nice accompaniment. And of course for many, Guinness is the cup of
choice although I'm a light weight and will toast you with a glass of good old
sweet tea! Enjoy!
