Hungarian Sausage and Potatoes

This is such a comforting and warming dish we just had to share it!

Delicious sausages, soft potatoes and warm paprika are perfectly paired for a Fall or Winters night meal

You can use whatever sausages you like, we chose to use 5 sweet and 5 hot Italian style sausages

Since these are fresh sausage we are going to brown them on the outside before cutting them into slices so they will hold their form better

Heat 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil in a large pan over medium heat

Brown the sausages on both sides

Remove from the heat and slice on the bias

Cook for about 2-3 minutes per side

Once they are browned on both sides, remove them with a slotted spoon and set aside

Next we will need 1 large onion and 5 garlic cloves

Peel, quarter and slice the onion thinly

Chop the garlic finely

We will also need 4 tablespoons of butter, 1 tablespoon of smoked paprika and 1 teaspoon each of kosher salt and ground black pepper

Add the butter to the pan the sausage cooked in and melt it

Add in the onions, paprika, salt and pepper

Stir to combine and cook for 6-8 minutes or until the onions are tender and starting to get translucent

Add in the garlic and cook 2-3 minutes

Next up, we will need 5 medium potatoes, rinsed, skins left on

I’m using a mandolin to slice them into 1/4 inch thick rounds

Add the potatoes to the pan and toss around to coat them with the onions and sauce

Next we will need 2 cups of chicken stock

Add the stock in and stir everyone up

Cover, leaving a gap for ventilation and cook 15 minutes, stirring occasionally

As they cook the potatoes may break a bit as you stir them, this is ok as the starch from the potatoes will help thicken the sauce

Add the sausage back in and cook uncovered for another 6-8 minutes or until the potatoes are tender and the sausage are heated through

 We sprinkled this with some chopped fresh parsley and crushed red pepper flakes!
