Hutspot - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 lb onion
1/2 lb celery
2 lbs carrots
2 lbs rutabagas
4 lbs potatoes
2 cups sour cream
salt
1 lb bacon (spek)
2 lbs smoked pork sausage, 1 sausage per person (rookworst)

Preparation

Dice onions, celery and carrots. Peel and quarter potatoes. Peel and cut rutabaga into strips resembling french fries.
Place all veggies into a large pot with 2 cups water. Bring to a boil, then simmer covered for 20-25 minutes til fork tender. Place rookworst on top of veggies in the last 5 mins of cooking, keep an eye on them so the casings dont split.
While veggies are cooking, fry cubed spek til not quite crisp.
Remove rookworst and spek to a warmed dish and cover.
Drain veggies thoroughly. Add salt, bacon fat and sour cream. Mash to desired consistency. (We prefer ours a little bit lumpy).
Serve hot with plain yellow mustard on the side.
