Sauspatot may have an unusual name, but is really just a flavorful sausage stew made with smoked sausages and cubed potatoes. The sauce is tomato-based with flavors coming from bell peppers, onions, and garlic.
Increase or decrease the amount of Serrano peppers depending on how spicy you like your food. It can be completely skipped if you don’t like heat. Alternate chili peppers can also be substituted if desired.
This stew can easily be served as dinner or lunch. It is balanced enough to be served as a one-pot meal or if needing something more substantial it goes well with rice or mashed potatoes.
