# How to Make It:
01 -
Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C) to ensure optimal roasting conditions for potatoes.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it. Spread seasoned potatoes in a single layer. Distribute smoked sausage slices evenly over potatoes.
06 -
Roast in preheated oven for 35–40 minutes until potatoes are golden brown and tender. Stir halfway to ensure uniform cooking.

Ensure the sausage used is halal and pork-free for dietary compliance. Baby potatoes offer a creamy texture and hold up well to roasting. Adjust cheese variety to preference for a different flavor profile.
