Basic sausage and vegetables recipe

 This is I think the only recipe that I learned from my mother.  It is super simple and tastes spectacular and is really pretty healthy.  It is a great way to use up extra potatoes and carrots, which I always seem to have around

The big key is the yin and yang of moisture.  Too much moisture and everything turns out mushy and too little and the veggies don't soften.  Remove the lid if things get a bit too moist and cook off the moisture.  Also, you want to add the pepper at the end.  Otherwise, it turns to goo.  I leave the potatoes fairly large.  They take a while to cook, but I like the big chunks.

Sausage and Vegetable Stir Fry

1 lb smoked sausage, sliced
5 potatoes
3-4 carrots
1 onion
2-3 garlic cloves
1/2 tbsp seasoned salt
1/2 pepper (red, green, yellow)
1/4 tsp rosemary (optional)
2 tablespoons oil (olive, canola)

1) Chop and peel the veggies.
2) Heat oil to medium-high
3) Toss in the veggies and sausage except for the pepper.  Add season salt and rosemary
4) Cover the pot and fry and stir until the veggie begin to soften and a brown crust forms on the bottom of the pan
5) Add two tablespoons of water to deglaze the pan.  Stir to incorporate, cover, and cook until nearly done
6) Add the pepper and cook another couple of minutes, until the pepper has softened, but is still crispy.
