- Combine: Add the cooked sausages to the skillet with the peppers, tossing them together for 2–3 minutes to blend flavors. Garnish with fresh parsley.
For the Mashed Potatoes:
- Boil: In a large pot, cover potatoes with cold water. Add a pinch of salt and bring to a boil. Cook until tender (about 15–20 minutes).
- Mash: Drain and mash the potatoes using a potato masher or ricer.
- Mix: Stir in butter and milk until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
