Recipe Tips
- This recipe is gluten-free, but you will need to double-check the ingredients of the cornstarch. Typically, it is gluten-free.
- I prefer to use a smoked sausage such as kielbasa or chorizo. However, Italian sausages will work great as well. I recommend browning the Italian sausages first.
- You can use any potato in this casserole, and it will work out fine.
- Depending on where you live, heavy cream can also be known as thickened cream (Australia) or whipping cream (United Kingdom).
- You can use herbs to add more flavor to the casserole. We use a little bit of parsley, but you can add herbs such as oregano, rosemary, or even thyme.
