SAUSAGE WITH POTATOES This recipe came from an estate sale. I obtained it when I purchased the family collection from the Jaffe Estate in Ida Oklahoma in 1994.
Ingredients:
2 pounds yukon gold potatoes
3 bell peppers assorted colors
1 medium white onion
2-1/2 pounds sweet mild italian sausage
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1-1/2 cups dry red wine
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 450. 2. Peel potatoes and cut into strips about 3 long and 1/2 thick. 3. Place in bowl with just enough cold water to cover then set aside to soak. 4. Seed peppers and cut into pieces 2 long and 1 wide. 5. Peel onion then slice it fairly thin and separate into rings. 6. Arrange sausage in a coil in center of a large roasting pan. 7. Drain potatoes and place them on either side of the sausage. 8. Arrange peppers and onion rings on top of potatoes then drizzle olive oil over vegetables. 9. Season with salt and pepper then roast 20 for 20 minutes. 10. Pour wine over sausage and vegetables then turn vegetables. 11. Using a metal spatula carefully loosen any potatoes that may have stuck to the bottom of pan. 12. Roast 40 minutes longer then sprinkle with oregano and serve.
