Step by step recipe

---

Stage 1 - 5 min.

Roll out the puff pastry and line the tart tin or mould. Prick all over the base with a pique-vite (pastry pricker) or fork and leave to wait in the fridge.

---

Stage 2 - 50 min.

Cook the Morteau sausage, then peel off the skin and dice (slice first, cut the slices into sticks, then cut the sticks into dice).

Set aside.

---

Stage 3 - 15 min.

Peel and rinse 300 g potatoes, then dice fairly small (like for the Morteau sausage). Rinse again and dry in a tea towel.

---

Stage 4 - 8 min.

Pour 3 tablespoons oil into a frying pan on high heat. When hot, add the diced potatoes.

Fry, stirring occasionally. Salt and pepper when cooked.

---

Stage 5 - 2 min.

Preheat the oven to 410°F (210°C).

Spread the diced sausage in the bottom of the tart.

---

Stage 6 - 2 min.

Add the diced potatoes on top.

---

Stage 7 - 2 min.

Finish by pouring the cancoillotte over.

If the tub of cancoillotte has come straight from the fridge, heat in the microwave for 1 minute to liquefy it.

---

Stage 8 - 25 min.

Bake for about 25 minutes until the top is nicely browned.

---

Stage 9

Best eaten hot or warm. Serve with a green salad and a good french dressing (vinaigrette).

Remarks

If you can't find Morteau sausage, you can use another kind, but preferably smoked.
