Step-by-step recipe

check things off as you go

  1. Prep the veggies

    Peel the potatoes (380 g) and cut them into 2 cm cubes. Slice the onion and seed the 2 red bell peppers, then cut them into 2 cm pieces.

  2. Precook the potatoes

    Put the cubes in a saucepan of cold salted water, bring to a boil, then let them simmer. Drain them when they're just tender when poked with the tip of a knife.

  3. Brown the sausages

    Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in the skillet over medium heat. Cook the 3 whole sausages, turning them regularly, until nicely browned with no pink in the center. Then set them on the plate.

    Tip · Don't prick the sausages, that way they stay juicy. Keep the heat at medium so they cook through without burning outside.

  4. Brown the potatoes

    In the fat left in the skillet, add the 2nd tbsp of olive oil, then the drained potatoes. Brown them over medium-high heat, stirring now and then.

    Tip · Don't stir the potatoes too much at first, let them form a golden crust against the skillet. Drain them well so they don't splatter.

  5. Add the onion and bell peppers

    Add the onion and bell peppers, season with salt and pepper. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until the veggies are soft and lightly browned.

  6. Put the sausages back

    Cut the sausages into 3 cm pieces and put them back in the skillet. Cover and let everything warm through over low heat, then taste and adjust the seasoning.
