Bangers and Mash
- 1 whole Celery Root
- 1 whole Yam (medium-sized)
- 1 bottle (750ml Size) Cabernet Sauvingnon
- 1/2 whole Yellow Onion
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 4 whole Sausage Links Of Your Choice (I Chose Diestel Spinach & Feta Turkey Sausages)
- 1/4 cups Cream Or Milk
- 1 cup Cheddar Cheese, Shredded
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 pinch Ground Black Pepper
- Fill a large pot with water and bring to a boil.
- Wash the celery root and yam, cut both in half and place in boiling water until soft, about 20 minutes.
- The yam may cook before the yam, so check on both occasionally by poking them with a fork.
- While the celery root and yam are cooking, pour the red wine into a saucepan or skillet and bring to a gentle boil.
- Allow the wine to reduce, stirring occasionally, until it is thick, about 15 to 20 minutes.
- Note that when you take the wine away from the heat, it will continue to thicken.
- Chop the onion and garlic coarsely and saute in a skillet over medium heat until soft and browned.
- Set aside when finished.
- Put your oven on the high broil setting and prepare a roasting pan or casserole dish.
- Place the sausages in the dish and broil for about 7 minutes (until the browned), then remove the sausages from the oven, flip them, and continue to broil an additional 3 to 5 minutes.
- Once the roots are soft, remove them from the water.
- Using a knife, carefully peel the outside of the celery root off and discard.
- I leave the peel of the yam on for added nutrition, but you can also discard the yam peel if desired.
- Place both roots in a blender/food processor, along with the sauteed onion and garlic and just enough milk to get everything moving (for me it took about 1/4 cup).
- Blend until smooth.
- Add the shredded cheddar cheese, salt and pepper and continue to blend until everything is combined.
- Serve the bangers and mash together with red wine reduction sauce drizzled on top.
