Ingredients
- 4 medium Russet potatoes
- 4 large Carrots
- 2 medium Yellow onion
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Milk
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 large Smoked sausage (Dutch rookworst or kielbasa)
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 4 cups Water
Directions
Step 1
Peel the potatoes and carrots. Cut the potatoes into quarters and slice the carrots into thick coins.
Step 2
Peel and chop the onions into large chunks.
Step 3
Place the potatoes, carrots, and onions into a large pot. Add 4 cups of water and 1 teaspoon of salt. Bring to a boil over high heat.
Step 4
Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and cook for 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes and carrots are fork-tender.
Step 5
While the vegetables are cooking, heat the smoked sausage according to its package instructions. Most sausages can be simmered in a small amount of water for 10-12 minutes or baked in the oven.
Step 6
When the vegetables are cooked, drain the water from the pot but reserve about 1 cup of the cooking liquid.
Step 7
Add the butter and milk to the drained vegetables. Using a potato masher, mash the mixture until smooth. If the texture is too thick, add a little of the reserved cooking liquid, one tablespoon at a time, until your desired consistency is reached.
Step 8
Season the mash with ground black pepper and dried thyme, adjusting salt to taste if needed.
Step 9
Serve the orange-colored mash (hutspot) warm with the cooked sausage on the side or sliced on top. Enjoy!
