# Ingredients List:

→ Main Ingredients

01 - 450 grams smoked sausage, halal-certified, sliced into 6 mm rounds
02 - 900 grams baby potatoes, halved or quartered
03 - 30 milliliters olive oil
04 - 1 packet (28 grams) ranch seasoning mix, halal-certified
05 - 5 milliliters garlic powder
06 - 5 milliliters onion powder
07 - 2.5 milliliters black pepper
08 - 170 grams shredded cheddar cheese or mixed cheese blend

→ For Serving (Optional)

09 - 120 milliliters sour cream
10 - Fresh parsley, chopped

# How to Make It:

01 - Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F) to prepare for effective roasting.
02 - Wash baby potatoes and cut them into halves or quarters for uniform roasting. Slice smoked sausage into 6 mm rounds to maximize flavor infusion.
03 - In a small bowl, combine ranch seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Set aside.
04 - Place prepared potatoes in a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with half of the seasoning mixture. Toss thoroughly to ensure even coating.
05 - Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease lightly. Arrange coated potatoes in a single layer, ensuring no overcrowding. Distribute sausage evenly over potatoes.
06 - Place baking sheet in preheated oven. Roast for 35 to 40 minutes until potatoes are golden and cooked through, stirring halfway to promote even roasting.
07 - Remove baking sheet and sprinkle shredded cheese over potatoes and sausage. Return to oven for 5 minutes or until cheese has melted and is bubbly.
08 - Remove from oven, garnish with chopped parsley if desired, and serve immediately with sour cream on the side.

# Extra Tips:

01 - Allow potatoes to cool for 2 minutes before serving to allow the cheese to set slightly for improved texture.
02 - For extra crispiness, avoid overcrowding potatoes on the baking sheet.
