Baked Potato and Sausage Casserole with Mozzarella

 

    1. Prepare the Potatoes:
        • Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).

       

      • Peel and slice the potatoes into thin rounds. Toss them with olive oil, salt, black pepper, Provencal herbs, and sweet paprika.
      • Spread the potatoes in a greased baking dish and bake for 30 minutes until slightly tender.
    1. Prepare the Eggs:
      • In a bowl, whisk the eggs with a tablespoon of mayonnaise. Season with salt and ground black pepper.
    2. Prepare the Vegetables:
        • In a pan, heat a little olive oil and sauté the chopped onion until translucent.

       

       

      • Add minced garlic, grated carrot, and chopped red bell pepper. Season with salt, black pepper, and paprika. Cook until the vegetables are soft.
    3. Prepare the Sauce:
        • In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes to form a roux.

       

      • Gradually add the milk, whisking constantly to avoid lumps. Cook the sauce until it thickens, then season with salt and black pepper.
    4. Assemble the Casserole:
        • Take the partially baked potatoes out of the oven. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the potatoes.

       

      • Layer the sautéed vegetables and sliced sausages on top.
      • Pour the prepared sauce over the casserole and sprinkle with grated mozzarella cheese.
  1. Bake:
    • Return the casserole to the oven and bake at 180°C (350°F) for another 30 minutes, until the top is golden and bubbly.
  2. Garnish and Serve:
      • Sprinkle chopped green onions on top before serving. Enjoy the casserole hot.
