HOW TO MAKE FRIED POTATOES WITH SMOKED SAUSAGE, ONIONS, AND BELL PEPPER?
INGREDIENTS:
2lbs/900g. Of baby red potatoes, I cut them into 2“ pieces.
220g.Of smoked sausage, I cut it into 1“ pieces.
220g.Of fresh mushrooms, I cut them in half.
1 sliced onion.
1 red bell pepper, I cut it into 1“ pieces.
1/4 C.Of virgin olive oil.
4 minced garlic cloves.
1 t.Of fresh thyme.
1 T.Of spice/ dry herbs blend.
Sea salt.
Ground black pepper.
Minced fresh herbs, you can use parsley, chives, thyme… etc.
THE METHOD:
Step 1:
I preheated the oven to 475 degrees Fahrenheit (I used my oven’s convection mode, but it will still work if you don’t have that option).
Step 2:
At the same time, I put a large rimmed baking sheet in the oven, so that it heats up.
Step 3:
And gently I scrubbed the potatoes and I cut them into 2-inch bits. I put them in a medium pot and fill it with water so that the potatoes are lightly filled by the water.
Step 4:
I brought it to a boil, simmer, and cooked for about 5 minutes, covered, only until the potatoes are halfway through fried. Then I drained the potatoes.
Step 5:
In the meantime, I combined the onion, mushrooms, bell pepper, olive oil, minced cloves of garlic, fresh thyme salt, freshly ground black pepper and a mix of dried herbs in a large mixing bowl.
Step 6:
When the potatoes are cooked halfway, I added the mushroom and pepper mixture and the sausage.
Step 7:
I took the searingly hot baking sheet out of the oven and spread it all out in one layer easily.
Step 8:
I roasted for 30 minutes in the preheated oven, uncovered until the vegetables are all cooked through and golden brown, turning all over halfway through cooking.
Step 9:
During the final few minutes of preparation, I broil the dish to give it extra brownness and a faint burn.
Step 10:
For garnish, I used a mixture of fresh herbs.
Enjoy.
