Easy Cheesy Potato Kielbasa

Print Recipe

Crispy potatoes and kielbasa coated in creamy cheese sauce with bell peppers for a hearty, flavorful comfort dish.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 310 ml heavy cream
  • 28 g unsalted butter
  • 140 g cheddar cheese, freshly shredded
  • 28 g cream cheese
  • 56 g gruyere cheese, freshly shredded
  • 2.5 ml ground mustard
  • 6 medium potatoes, cut into 2.5 cm pieces
  • vegetable oil, for frying
  • 454 g kielbasa sausage, sliced into 1.25 cm pieces
  • 60 ml red bell pepper, finely diced
  • 60 ml green bell pepper, finely diced
  • 1 medium onion, cut into strips
  • 0.5 g chili powder
  • 2.5 g ground black pepper
  • 2.5 g seasoning salt
  • 45 ml olive oil
  • fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan, heat heavy cream, cream cheese, and butter over medium heat, stirring until smooth and fully incorporated. Remove from heat and blend in the shredded cheddar and gruyere cheeses along with the ground mustard until the sauce is glossy and uniform.
  2. Preheat vegetable oil in a deep pan to 190°C. Fry potato pieces in batches until golden brown and crisp on the outside. Transfer to paper towels to drain excess oil.
  3. In a large non-stick skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add sliced onions, red bell pepper, and green bell pepper. Season with chili powder and black pepper. Cook for 3–4 minutes, stirring frequently, until vegetables begin to soften.
  4. Add sliced kielbasa to the vegetables. Cook, stirring, until the sausage is browned and onions are translucent, about 5–6 minutes. Stir in the seasoning salt and remove the skillet from heat.
  5. Gently fold fried potatoes into the skillet with the kielbasa and vegetables. Drizzle with cheese sauce and toss lightly to coat. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot.

Notes

For extra crispness, ensure potatoes are dried well before frying to prevent oil splattering and uneven browning.
