Chef's Notes

For extra crispy sausages, prick them lightly with a fork before cooking to allow fat to render out

Warm your milk and butter before adding to potatoes for the smoothest texture

Don't overwork the potatoes when mashing to prevent them from becoming gluey

Serving Suggestions

Serve with a side of sautéed cabbage or peas for a traditional Irish meal. Pair with a pint of Irish stout or a crisp lager. This dish is perfect for St. Patrick's Day celebrations or anytime you crave hearty comfort food.
