Andouille sausage has such a great, spicy flavor. It’s up there with chorizo as my favorite sausage. A little heat and bold flavor adds a lot to what would’ve been normal (but still good) fried potatoes. These Andouille Cajun potatoes are fantastic. Potatoes need spicy sausage. These are not plain boring potatoes. Not by any stretch.
These andouille Cajun potatoes are a great dinner side. And they’re also great for breakfast. Just substitute them for your usual breakfast potatoes.
Also try my Andouille po boy. The more andouille the better, I say!
