Also known as: Blunzengröstl
Blood sausage and sliced potatoes pan-fried with onion, garlic and herbs.

About Blunzengroestl
Blunzengröstl combines blood sausage with potatoes in a hearty Austrian pan dish. Millavanilla's rendition presents the familiar home-cooking preparation with onion, garlic, black pepper and dried marjoram.
The potatoes are cooked before being sliced and browned. Blood sausage is fried separately, then returns to the pan with garlic so the components come together without losing their individual pieces.
Fresh parsley finishes the dish on warmed plates. The recipe suggests a green salad as a companion, and also notes the familiar option of a fried egg alongside.
