#kampvuurkuier

Ingredients:

4 large russet potatoes, peeled and cubed
250 g bacon, chopped
250 g sausage (breakfast sausage or Italian sausage or boerewors), crumbled
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup milk
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
1/2 cup breadcrumbs (optional, for topping)

Directions:

Prepare the Potatoes:

Boil the cubed potatoes in salted water for 10-12 minutes or until tender. Drain and return to the pot.

Cook the Bacon and Sausage:

In a pan, cook the chopped bacon over medium heat until crispy, about 5 minutes. Remove the bacon and set aside. In the same pan cook the crumbled sausage and chopped onion until the sausage is browned and the onion is softened, about 7-8 minutes. Drain any excess fat.

Mash the Potatoes:

Mash the boiled potatoes with butter, sour cream, and milk until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Combine the Filling:

Gently fold the cooked bacon, sausage mixture, and shredded cheddar cheese into the mashed potatoes. Stir until well combined.

Assemble the Loaf:

Transfer the mashed potato mixture into a greased loaf pan. Sprinkle the breadcrumbs on top for a crispy finish, if desired.

Bake:

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the potato loaf for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.

Serve:

Let the loaf cool slightly before slicing. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving. This dish pairs beautifully with a simple salad or roasted vegetables.
