Sausage Stroganov

Boiling potatoes in the foreground while the "casserole" is frying.

Ingredients

Falukorv (swedish large sausage)
Creme Fraiche
Salt
Pimento
Potatoes (Make sure you use enough. You'd be surprised how much is required to make mashed potatoes)
Butter


Directions

1. Clean the potatoes and slice into smaller pieces.
2. Chop the sausage into sticks and pre-fry. Add CF after taste and season with salt and pimento. Let it cook on low temp.
3. When the potatoes are done, pour all the water out and mash them with an electric whipper. Stir on low speed. Add salt, butter and a little pimento and stir into a thick puree. Lumps are recommended to save.

I should mention that this is a budget version of stroganov when there's a low stock of ingredients. The proper way to cook this is to include diced onions, meatbroth cubes, tomato puree and soy sauce.

Ready to eat

Availability of Ingredients

• If Falukorv is unavailable, the closest that has the same texture (but not exactly the taste, which might be a bit sweeter) is SPAM. Before following the directions above, cut SPAM into desired sizes and fry separetely first so that the meat won't break off easily.
• Sour cream can be used in place of Creme Fraiche when it comes to texture and density, but tastes a bit different and stronger too. Amount to be added depends on your taste.
