Ingredients:
Bratwurst:
- 4 bratwurst sausages

- 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 cups beef or vegetable broth
- 2 tbsp flour
- 2 tbsp butter
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the bratwurst sausages and cook until they are browned and cooked through, about 7-10 minutes. Once done, remove them from the skillet and set aside.

Put the bratwurst back in the skillet. Let them simmer in the gravy for a few minutes so they can absorb the flavors.
