Instructions

  1. Wash and Cut potatoes into one-inch chunks (no need to peel). Add potatoes to a pot of clean cold water and add about 1-2 tbsp of kosher salt. Water level should be slightly above the potatoes.
  2. Bring water to boil and allow potatoes to cook for about 6-7 minutes. You can use a knife to test the potatoes. They are done if they enter with little resistance.
  3. Drain these potatoes in a colander and shake to drain excess water.
    1. *Side note*: What I like to do as well is toss the potatoes in the colander a few times (the similar motion to how you would flip/toss food in a frying pan) until you see a pasty/ mashed potato like layer around the surface of each chunk. This allows for crispier edges.
  4. Grab your baking sheet lined with paper towels or wax paper and dump the potatoes evenly on the baking sheet. Allow these to cool for at least 10 minutes.
  5. Add olive oil to a cast iron skillet or 10-inch frying pan and bring heat to medium-medium high until oil is shimmering.
  6. Add your diced Roger wood sausages and brown these off for about 3-4 minutes stirring occasionally. Once browned, take sausages out, place in a bowl, and set aside.
  7. Add onions, bell peppers, and red peppers and sauté for about 3-4 minutes. Then add chopped garlic into pan and cook for about 30-45 seconds stirring frequently.
  8. Next gather your potatoes that have been cooling on the baking sheet and Throw these in the skillet and spread evenly. Using a firm (preferably metal) spatula, flip the potatoes and vegetables every 2 minutes and smooth out evenly in the pan once again. The goal here is to add some color and brown the potatoes.
  9.  After flipping the potatoes twice. Add the Roger wood sausages we browned earlier back into the pan and spread evenly. Add more olive oil if needed at this point.
  10. Continue the flip & spread process until potatoes are cooked and crisped all over (about 2 more times). While doing this process, add the rosemary and chopped sage and you may begin seasoning by adding salt, pepper, old bay, and any other seasonings of choice.
  11. Once potatoes are browned all over, add the crab meat and some chopped green onions. Begin mixing this in. The crab is already cooked so we are basically warming this up for a few minutes.
  12. After 3-4 minutes. Garnish with the rest of the chopped green onions and serve immediately! This pairs with eggs or grits.
