This is a very simple recipe. It does produce a very nicely flavored entree though.
I used a spicy pork sausage. I liked the little bit of spice that was added. It gave the dish a little depth.
I do not recommend boiling the potatoes with the skins on. And whole.
This makes the potatoes so much harder to peel and dice. I have several recipes that call for this method. I just don’t care for it.
I mashed the potatoes with the seasoning and butter before adding the milk.
I added all the milk and thought I had definitely made a mistake. The potatoes were super soupy.
Thankfully, it was not a mistake. The extra liquid evaporates or blends in while baking.
The end result was a light and fluffy potato.
It looks a little strange, but it does taste good!

Prick sausages and arrange them in the bottom of a baking dish. Boil potatoes until tender, peel, mash well, and beat thoroughly with butter, milk, salt and pepper. Spread potatoes over sausages and cover evenly with beaten egg. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 30 minutes.
