Ale Sausage and Red Potatoes


If you enjoy ale beer, you will like this dish. The sauce gives the dish a nice rich ale taste. The red potatoes provide a nice creamy texture that soak up the sauce.

Olive Oil
Italian Sweet Sausages
1 Diced Yellow Onion
3 Minced Garlic Cloves
1 Bottle of Ale Beer (I used a Fat Tire Ale)
Red Potatoes, Quartered
Salt and Pepper for Seasoning
Chopped Cilantro for Garnish

Heat non-stick sauté pan over medium-high heat. Drizzle with olive oil. Add sausages and sauté until brown on all sides. Remove sausages and place in a bowl to rest.

Add onion and season with salt and pepper and sauté (stirring frequently) for about 10 minutes. You want the onions to start to brown and begin to caramelize. Add garlic and sauté for another 5 minutes. Add potatoes and beer and cook for about 20 minutes under a medium simmer.

Add sausages and any juice from when the sausages were resting. Cover and reduce heat to a light simmer and cook for an additional 30 minutes. Stir occasionally.

Test potatoes. If they are done, then you are ready to serve and garnish with cilantro. If the potatoes need more time, cover and continue to cook until potatoes are done. Serve and ENJOY!!!!!

Serve this dish with an Ale Beer.
