Instructions

  1. 1Cut the Potatoes
    A person cutting a peeled potato into small chunks on a wooden cutting board using a knife.

    Place a peeled potato on a wooden cutting board and use a knife to cut it into small chunks.

    Tip: Ensure the potato chunks are uniform in size so they cook evenly.
  2. 2Boil the Potatoes
    A hand dropping cut potato chunks into a metal pot filled with boiling water and rising steam.

    Carefully drop the cut potato chunks into a pot of boiling water and cook until they are tender.

    Tip: Do not overcook the potatoes so they maintain their shape during mixing.
  3. 3Slice the Sausages
    A hand slicing a cheese sausage into small sections on a wooden cutting board with a knife.

    Take a cheese sausage and slice it into small, bite-sized sections on the cutting board.

    Tip: Keep the slices consistent for even texture throughout the dish.
  4. 4Combine Ingredients
    Hands adding sliced sausages and white mushrooms into a mixing bowl containing boiled potato pieces.

    Transfer the boiled potatoes, sliced sausages, and chopped white mushrooms into a large mixing bowl.

    Tip: Mix gently to avoid breaking the soft potato chunks.
  5. 5Season the Mixture
    A wooden spoon dispensing cumin powder, chili powder, and salt over ingredients in a mixing bowl.

    Use a wooden spoon to sprinkle cumin powder, chili powder, and salt evenly over the ingredients inside the bowl.

    Tip: Adjust the chili powder according to your preferred spice level.
  6. 6Add Olive Oil
    Olive oil being poured from a bottle onto the seasoned mix of potatoes, mushrooms, and sausages.

    Pour olive oil evenly over the seasoned mixture of potatoes, mushrooms, and sausages in the bowl.

    Tip: Drizzle the oil in a circular motion to coat all the ingredients lightly.
  7. 7Mix the Ingredients
    A person mixing seasoned potatoes, sausages, and mushrooms in a stainless steel bowl by hand.

    Combine the boiled potatoes, sliced cheese sausages, and chopped white mushrooms in a large mixing bowl. Add cumin powder, chili powder, salt, white sesame seeds, and olive oil. Mix everything together thoroughly by hand to ensure all ingredients are evenly coated.

    Tip: Wearing food-safe gloves makes mixing sticky or oily ingredients much easier and cleaner.
  8. 8Transfer to Baking Tray
    The seasoned potato and sausage mixture being spread out on a parchment-lined baking tray.

    Take the evenly coated mixture of potatoes, sausages, and mushrooms and spread it out across a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Arrange the pieces so they have enough space for optimal roasting, then bake at 200 degrees Celsius for 10 minutes.

    Tip: Spreading the ingredients in a single layer helps them bake and crisp up evenly.
  9. 9Pan-Fry the Sausages
    Two scored cheese sausages cooking and browning in a black skillet being held with tongs.

    Score two whole cheese sausages diagonally along their surfaces. Place them into a heated skillet with a little oil and pan-fry until the outer skin turns golden brown and slightly crisp.

    Tip: Scoring the sausages allows them to cook evenly inside and creates a nice texture when seared.
  10. 10Check the Melted Cheese
    A freshly cooked cheese sausage cut open in half, showing melted yellow cheese inside.

    Carefully slice one of the hot, pan-fried cheese sausages open down the middle. Inspect the interior to ensure the cheese filling is properly melted and gooey.

    Tip: Let it cool for just a few seconds before cutting to avoid hot steam burns.
