Method

Put the potatoes in a medium pan and cover with water. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 20 minutes or until tender. Drain, then return to the saucepan and leave to dry out a little before mashing.
Meanwhile, heat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas 6. In a large frying pan, heat a glug of oil, then fry the onions for 6-8 minutes. Add the sausages and fry over a medium-high heat for 5-8 minutes until browned.
Add the gravy to the pan, simmer for 3-4 minutes, season, then pour into the baking dish. Top with the mashed potato and sprinkle with cheese, if using.
