HUTSPOT (ORANGE MASHED POTATOES AND SAUSAGE DINNER)
This is an extremely easy Dutch recipe that the whole family loves for a weeknight meal. It's another recipe where you can get creative and add more ingredients to your family's taste and you can also make it dairy-free for those with milk allergies. If you want this rich and creamy, add butter and cream when mashing the potato and carrot mixture. If you want it light (or dairy free) just use some of the hot water from boiling the vegetables or use dairy-free "milk" and Fleischmann's unsalted margarine. NOTE: all measurements are approximate! Have fun and treat the family to colorful mashed potatoes--Perfect for Halloween or any night!

Steps:
- Place the carrots in the bottom of a 3 quart pan with about 2 cups of water and put on high to boil.
- Let cook for about 3-5 minutes.
- Add the potatoes and onion.
- Put the sausage on top. (It will give the veggies some great flavor!).
- Cover. Let cook over medium heat for about 10 min until the vegetables are tender and easy to mash.
- Remove the sausage to a plate to keep warm.
- Drain the vegetables, reserving at least 1/2 c of the water if you prefer to use water to cream or milk.
- Put through a potato ricer or use a potato masher to mash all the vegetables together. Use the back of a spoon to smoosh it all together with the remaining ingredients. You CAN use a mixer for this, but you risk the vegetables becoming gummy if you over-mix. Go for power at your own risk!
- Season to taste. Serve with a salad and dinner is ready!

HUTSPOT ( HOLLANDE )
Number Of Ingredients 6
Steps:
- Faire bouillir les pommes de terre et les carottes dans de l'eau et du bouillon (un cube fera l'affaire si vous n'avez rien d'autre sous la main).
- Pendant ce temps, faites revenir les lardons pour qu'ils perdent une partie de leur gras.
- Quand tout est prêt, égoutter les légumes et les réduire en purée grossière, y mélanger les lardons, éventuellement de la crème fraîche, saler, poivrer.
- Disposer ensuite dans un plat à gratin, couvrir de fromage râpé et mettre au four jusqu'à ce que le fromage soit bien doré.
- Servir accompagné d'une salade.
Tips:
- Use waxy potatoes: Waxy potatoes, such as Yukon Gold or Red Bliss, hold their shape better during cooking, making them ideal for hutspot.
- Cut the vegetables into uniform pieces: This will help them cook evenly.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the vegetables will steam instead of fry, resulting in a mushy texture.
- Season the vegetables well: Salt, pepper, and nutmeg are all classic seasonings for hutspot. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as thyme, rosemary, or paprika.
- Cook the vegetables until they are tender but still hold their shape: You don't want to overcook them, or they will become mushy.
- Serve the hutspot with your favorite accompaniments: Popular choices include sausage, bacon, or gravy.
Conclusion:
Hutspot is a simple but delicious dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a comforting and satisfying meal, give hutspot a try.
