- Boil the potatoes until soft, about 20 minutes.
- Fry the sausages in butter in a frying pan over a medium heat for 6–8 minutes, turning them often so they brown all over.
- Warm the milk. Drain the potatoes and mash them with the butter, ideally using a potato ricer. Beat in the warm milk to make a creamy mash and season with salt.
- Serve the sausages with the mash, mustard and ketchup.
