Ingredients

  • 1.2 lbs pork sausages (4–6 links)
  • 1.5 lbs russet potatoes
  • 2 medium leeks, white and light green parts, sliced into 1/4-inch rings
  • 2 medium carrots, sliced into 1/4-inch coins
  • 3 tbsp butter
  • ½ cup whole milk

Instructions

  1. 1

    Cut potatoes into 1-inch chunks. Boil in salted water for 12 minutes until very tender, then drain.

  4. 4

    Return drained potatoes to the skillet with the vegetables. Add butter and milk, then mash until creamy with some small lumps.

  5. 5

    Season stoemp with salt and pepper to taste. Divide among serving bowls and top each with a sausage.

  6. 6

    Serve hot with a drizzle of the pan juices from the skillet.
