‼️BRATWURST WITH MUSHROOM GRAVY‼️

🔥 Directions

1. Brown the Bratwurst

• In a large skillet over medium heat, add a little oil or butter.
• Sear the bratwurst on all sides until golden brown (5–7 minutes).
• Optional: Add a splash of beer or water, cover, and let them steam for another 5 minutes to cook through.
• Remove bratwurst and set aside (keep warm).

2. Make the Mushroom Gravy

• In the same skillet, add butter and a bit of oil. Sauté the onions until soft and translucent.
• Add the mushrooms and cook until browned and tender—don’t rush this! It builds flavor.
• Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute to form a roux.
• Gradually whisk in broth, then add cream and mustard.
• Let simmer for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thick and luscious.
• Season with salt, pepper, and a touch of fresh parsley.

3. Bring It All Together

• Return the bratwurst to the pan and spoon that mushroom gravy all over.
• Simmer gently for another couple of minutes so the flavors mingle.

🍽️ Serving Suggestions
