Wow! Second time making this and the Maggi Rich Meat Gravy powder makes it next level yum! I’m not too fussed on sausages since I gre up eating them probably twice a week just fried in a pan with no onion or gravy. Didn’t precook any of it just used Woolies Herb and Gsrlic Beef sausages x 16 and followed the recipe. Thank you Paulene for a lovely way to improve sausages 🙂

Love this recipe. Easy, quick & very tasty. We have taken to using Chipolatta sausages in this – find them a lovely change from our every day sausage & it also helps us keep an eye on how much we’re eating.😋

This was so tasty and so easy!! Definite hit for my family. I just used the gravy we had in the fridge and it worked well. Having this sparked memories of my childhood. Sausages and gravy was one of our favourites growing up. Will definitely be a regular for my kids now too.

This is so tasty!! We used chipolatta sausages & they were so tender – beautiful with sides of creamy mash potato, carrot & broccoli.

I’ve just come home after a stint in hospital. So handy to have this meal in the freezer (amongst others), it’s so tasty I find I needed to use more of the gravy powder than the recipe called for. I use the smaller chipolata sausages. That’s the beauty of the slow cooker, especially when you live alone, it’s marvellous for making extra meals to freeze.

Simple but amazing and delicious, if i don’t have the Maggi gravy I sometimes add a pack of French onion soup.

Hi…Just wondering if everyone browns the sausages first in frypan or has anyone just put it all straight into slow cooker without browning first 🙂

One of my go to favourites. I make it in big batches and freeze in containers with mashed potato & mixed veges. Great for a nourishing after work meal when I work late & can’t be bothered cooking. Just grab & go out of the freezer.

We had this meal for the first time last night and it was SO good. The family loved it! I’m not sure why it took me so long to make it. I did find it a bit watery so thickened the gravy at the end with some cornflour. I served it with mashed potato and veges. Yum!!!

Saw a post for this recipe and decided that would be dinner.
I have a very fussy 7yo and he devoured the sausages for dinner.
Rather than regular mash I did onion mash and bake at home bread rolls to mop up any left over gravy.
Will make again and again and again 🙂

Absolutely my favourite recipe so far since being on this site. Thank you. I did only have 500 g sausages, and replace with gravox and only used 400 mls of water because I did not have your ingredients but it turned out ok…many thanks, sausages will never be the same again in my house <3

Drop down to half, like ONE packet of gravy mix for example and one onion and half the water 🙂

This recipe is so easy. Used less water and added some honey chipotle bbq sauce, garlic and Italian mixed herbs. Also added some large sliced carrots at the beginning and some grated zucchini at the end. Served on mash.

Absolutely loved this dish so tasty, I added mushrooms the last hour though, my husband even ate it and he doesn’t like sausages but said it was nice and he’d have it again, I sent a photo to my Daughter and she replied saying it looks yum and she to isn’t a fan of sausages either lol, a definite hit here 😊

Hi Kim

But any gravy you love will work good too 🙂

Hi, sorry for silly question but is the Maggi Rich Meat Gravy powder hard to find…. I’m in Victoria and can’t find it at the supermarkets closest to me. Is it usually with the gravy mix products ? I used Brown Onion gravy mix today but would really like to make it same as your recipe. Thanks

This recipe elevates average sausages to an amazing meal. I followed the recipe and quickly browned the sausages (this got rid of some of the extra fat in them). I didn’t bother pre-cooking the onions, I just added them raw. I also added half a cup of beer (and didn’t add as much water). Turned out amazing, my family couldn’t believe how yum it was.
Will make again.
