🥔 Hearty 4-Ingredient Poor Man’s Meal (Potatoes, Onion & Sausage Bake)
🧾 Ingredients (only 4!)
4–5 medium potatoes (russet or any kind), sliced
1 large onion, sliced
2–3 sausages (or smoked sausage), cut into pieces
Salt & black pepper (counted as one basic ingredient)
👩🍳 Instructions
Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
Layer everything
In a greased baking dish, layer sliced potatoes, onions, and sausage pieces.
Repeat layers until everything is used.
Season well
Sprinkle salt and pepper over each layer.
Cover & bake
Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes.
Finish uncovered
Remove foil and bake another 15–20 minutes until potatoes are tender and slightly crispy on top.
💡 Tips (how grandpa probably made it better)
Add a splash of water or broth before baking to keep it moist.
If you have it, a little oil or butter on top makes it richer.
Cook it in a cast iron pan for that old-school flavor.
