Step-by-step recipe

check things off as you go
  1. Peel the veggies

    Peel the carrots and potatoes with the knife on the cutting board. Cut the carrots into thick rounds and the potatoes into cubes.

    Tip · To save time, peel the veggies while the water heats up.
  2. Cook the potatoes

    Put the potato cubes in the saucepan with cold salted water. Bring to a boil, then let them cook for 20 min over medium heat until tender.

  3. Cook the carrots

    In the same saucepan, add the carrot rounds to the potatoes. Let them cook for another 10 min over medium heat until tender.

  4. Drain the veggies

    Drain the potatoes and carrots in the colander. Put them back in the saucepan, uncovered.

  5. Mash the veggies

    Mash the veggies with a fork until smooth. Add the milk little by little to get the texture you like.

    Tip · If the mash is too thick, add a little warm milk to lighten it.
  6. Melt the butter

    In the skillet, melt the butter over low heat. Add the sausages and brown them for 8 to 10 min, turning them often.

  7. Season the mash

    Add salt and pepper to the mashed veggies. Mix well to spread the flavors.

  8. Serve hot

    Divide the mash among the plates and set the sausages on top. Serve right away.
