In a pan, fry onions in butter until caramelized, add the thyme and rosemary and pour in the beef stock.
Add the Worcestershire sauce, mustard and salt to taste and simmer for 20 minutes. (If preferred you can add more seasoning)
Add the Maizena. Stir until thickened and simmer for another 3 minutes.
In an ovenproof dish, layer some mash first, add the pork bangers.
Drizzle over some onion gravy and spread with remaining mash on top, covering all the gravy.
Sprinkle some grated cheese over.

Serve immediately with some of the left over gravy and side dish of choice.
