In the pan
The most common recipe for fried potatoes with sausage is frying all the ingredients in a skillet. In order for the dish to turn out to be friable and appetizing, rather than puree, you need to pay due attention to all stages of the preparation.
So, the following products will be required:
- medium-sized potatoes - 5-6 pcs.;
- cooked smoked sausage - 300 g;
- onion - 1 pc.;
- vegetable and butter for frying;
- herbs and spices to taste.
Potatoes must be peeled and cut into slices with a thickness of at least 0.5 cm. The sausage is cut into cubes, like onions.
After slicing the products, it is necessary to heat the pan with vegetable oil and add a small piece of cream to it. This will help give the potato a delicious, golden crust. It is it, along with the onion, that we spread in the pan. It is important to remember that potatoes should lie in a maximum of two layers. Otherwise, it will rather be steamed than fry.
Heat treatment should last about 15 minutes. We do not cover the pan with a lid, and mix the potatoes during this time only 2-3 times, but no more. Next, add the sausage and spices. Having mixed, we fry everything under the closed lid for another 7-9 minutes. A minute before the readiness we add greens so that it gives away all its aromas, but does not lose the brightness of the taste. Served fried potatoes with sausage must be in a warm form.
Hearty breakfast
The second recipe, not inferior in satiety and taste to the first, is even simpler in terms of preparation. Of the ingredients we need:
- potatoes - 0.5 kg;
- boiled or cooked smoked sausage - 0.25 kg;
- hard cheese - 70 g;
- sour cream - 50 g;
- tomato paste - 50 g;
- acute mustard - 1 tsp;
- vegetable oil;
- spices to taste.
From sour cream, tomato paste and mustard, you must mix a uniform sauce. For lovers of aromatic herbs, we recommend adding oregano to it, which is easy to find in the store. It is this spice that perfectly complements the taste of potatoes.
We cut the potatoes and sausage into thin slices. We spread the vegetables in a well-heated pan, greased with vegetable oil. After 15 minutes, add the sausage and sauce. Mix everything, pour in beaten eggs. The finishing touch is grated cheese, which is laid out on top of the whole dish. Cook under a closed lid for about 10-12 minutes.
Serve the finished potatoes in portions. A great addition to it will be a salad of fresh seasonal vegetables.
