Instructions

  1. Put the potatoes in a pot, cover with water and season generously with salt and a dash of vinegar. Bring to a rolling boil, then turn off the heat and let the potatoes sit in the hot water for 10 minutes.
  2. Remove the potatoes and allow them to cool. Once cool, cut them in half or crush lightly if they are small - this will help them brown and crisp better.
  3. Cut the blood sausage into 1-inch thick coins. Heat the lard or oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until lightly smoking. Add the potatoes and fry for 3-4 minutes per side until they are fork-tender (easily pierced with a fork) and deep golden brown.
  4. Add the blood sausage and scallions to the skillet with the potatoes. Fry everything together for an additional 5 minutes, turning the pieces as needed, until the sausage is crispy, deep golden brown all over, and hot throughout. Transfer to a serving plate and garnish with fresh parsley and/or cilantro. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve immediately while hot.
