Sausage with beer sauce

Chutný!

Means Bon Appetit in Czech.

This something for the beer lovers out there! 

Some time ago I wrote e Belgian recipe with beer; "Genste Stoverij". Now I travel 900km to a country next to Germany and Poland. The Czech republic is not really known for it's culinary delicacies, but that does not mean you can't have a good meal over there!

So as I told you, this recipe is going to be with beer. Not a strong beer this time, just a pilsner. And what goes hand in hand with beer? Sausage! Just ask the Germans, their Oktoberfest is nothing but sausage and beer!

This dish is perfect to make when you are home alone or want to make an easy and cheap meal.

Sausage with beer sauce

Ingredients:

• 2 nice sausages
• 1/2 onion
• 1 potato
• 1 garlic clove
• a hand full of parsley
• 1 tbs flower
• 1 tbs brown sugar
• 1 tbs worcestershire sauce
• 2 cans of beer (about 33cl)
• pinch of salt
• butter (to bake)

Preparation:

Boil some water in a pot, when it reaches boiling point turn down the heat and put in the sausages. Let them swell for 5 minutes and dry when done with a paper towel. Meanwhile cut the onion into rings, slide the garlic and cut the potato into small fries from about 2mm on 2mm. 

Take a prying pan and fry the sausages in the butter. After a few minutes add the onion and the garlic and let them stove with the sausage. When the sausage has a nice brown color and the onion looks glassy, add the  flower and let it bake a few minutes. Now pour over 1 can of beer and add the potatoes, the sugar and the worcestershire sauce.

Put on a lid and let it simmer on low heat for about 20 minutes. In the meantime cut the parsley. When the potatoes are ready, turn of the heat. Serve on a plate and garnish with the parsley.

Take the other beer and enjoy it with this dish!
