Ingredients

1 kg potatoes (cooking type B)
3–4 large onions
4 sausages or špekáčky
200 ml cooking cream (or milk)
2 tablespoons butter or oil
salt, pepper, ground paprika

optional: grated cheese for sprinkling

butter or oil for greasing the baking dish

Preparation procedure

Preheat the oven Set the oven to 180 °C. Prepare a large baking dish and lightly grease it with butter or oil.
Prepare the potatoes Peel the potatoes and cut them into thin slices (about 3 mm). For evenness you can use a mandoline.
Slice the onion Cut the onion into rings or half-rings. The more onion, the more pronounced and sweeter the flavor of the finished dish.
Layering Put half the potatoes on the bottom of the dish, salt, pepper, and sprinkle with paprika. Top with half the onions, continue with the remaining potatoes and season again.
Add the sausages Cut the sausages into a "hedgehog" shape (crosswise, but not all the way through) and place them on top of the potatoes.
Pour over with cream In a bowl mix the cream with salt and pepper and pour evenly over the entire contents of the baking dish.
Baking Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 40 minutes. Then uncover, optionally sprinkle with cheese, and bake for another 15–20 minutes until golden.
