Recipe Tips
- To ensure that this recipe is gluten-free, use a gluten-free cornstarch and Worcestershire sauce.
- The type of sausage you use is entirely up to you. For example, both Polish (Kielbasa) and Italian sausages will work very well. Even the cheap supermarket sausages are delicious in this casserole.
- You can use any type of potato in this recipe, but I recommend using something like Yukon for the best results.
- If you have the need for cheese, then feel free to add it to this recipe. I recommend mixing it in at the same time as the cornstarch mixture.
- The herb that you use in this dish can easily be swapped for something else. I made use of parsley, but plenty of others, such as chives, will work just fine.
- Heavy cream is also known as thickened cream in Australia or whipping cream in the UK.
