- If you prefer a smoother mashed potato texture, use a potato ricer or food mill instead of mashing by hand.
- Experiment with different types of sausages to find your favorite combination.
- To make the dish more indulgent, sprinkle some grated cheese on top of the mashed potatoes before serving.
- Leftovers can be reheated in the oven or microwave for a quick and satisfying meal.
