"If one had to choose the Vaudois dish, it would be the Papet vaudois. Papet equates mash - for traditionally, this delicious hotpot made from leek and potatoes has to be cooked long enough to create a thickened base upon which the fat Saucisson vaudois, a sausage stuffed with fluffy meat, may settle comfortably on top." This is a Swiss recipe from: http://www.myswitzerland.com

    half and half
  • 1/2 tsp

How To Make papet vaudois

  • 1
    Cook the onion with butter in a large skillet under medium-high heat until soft, not brown.
  • 2
    Add the leeks and potatoes. Season with salt, pepper and nutmeg.
  • 3
    Add the wine and beef stock, cover and simmer for 25 minutes until the potatoes are lightly cooked.
  • 4
    Meanwhile, pre-cook the sausages in a pan containing just enough oil to brown the sausages nicely as they pre-cook. Cook until the sausages are two-thirds done, between 15 and 30 minutes depending on the size of the sausages.
  • 5
    Drain the leek/potato mixture and simmer for 5 more minutes. Don't drain completely if you want to keep some of the wine taste.
  • 6
    Add the light cream to the drained potatoes and leeks and stir.
  • 7
    Lay the pre-boiled sausages on top.
  • 8
    Cover and simmer for a further 3-4 minutes.
