Ingredients
- 2 medium potatoes
- 4 cheese sausages
- 150 g white mushrooms
- 1 tsp cumin powder
- 1/2 tsp chili powder
- 1 tbsp white sesame seeds
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- to taste salt
- for garnish green onions
Instructions
- 1Cut the Potatoes

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. - 2Boil the Potatoes

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. - 3Slice the Sausages

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. - 4Combine Ingredients

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. - 5Season the Mixture

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. - 6Add Olive Oil

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. - 7Mix the Ingredients

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. - 8Transfer to 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. - 9Pan-Fry the Sausages

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. - 10Check the Melted Cheese

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.
