  3. Heat water in a deep pan. Just add as much water in which the sausages will submerge. As we will use this same water to make the gravy later. Add 1/2 tsp salt in the water.

  5. Once the water starts to boil. Put the sausages in the water and let them cook until they start to float on top. This means the sausages are cooked. Also, there will be boils on the skin of the sausages.
