Happy prep work! |
In a shallow pot, cook the shallots, garlic, and mustard seeds in the olive oil over moderate heat for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the herbs and wine and bring to a boil over high heat. Cook for 5 minutes, or until the liquid evaporates. Add the potatoes, carrots, and beef broth; return to a boil.
I felt so rustic making this. |
Reduce the heat to moderate and cook for 20
minutes or until the vegetables are almost tender.
Add the sausage and mustard and cook for 5 to 7
minutes, or until the sauce is thick and the sausage is hot all the way
through. Season with salt and pepper and garnish with chopped parsley.
So many wonderful things going on in here! |
My Rating: 5/5 "I adored this. The potatoes and carrots are wonderfully tender. The shallots add body to the sauce.The mustard and the sausage give the flavor a lot of depth. Even the leftovers were spectacular. Amazing win here!"
