Saint Patrick’s Day is right around the corner and I have been thinking about Irish style recipes to help celebrate with! Dublin Coddle is an Irish style sausage and potato stew that’s super easy to make and just packed with flavour! The basic ingredients are sausage, bacon, onions, potatoes, and broth. The bacon is cooked until crispy, the sausages are browned and the onions are cooked a little before everything is thrown into the pot to be slowly simmered for a few hours. You can simmer this on the stovetop, or throw it into the oven or even into a slow cooker! I like to serve coddle with fresh baked Irish soda bread making for one hearty and tasty meal!
Serve with whole or sliced sausages!

Where do you get Irish sausage? I can’t find English sausage (Bangers) and English “Back” bacon anywhere! Any suggestions? I was born in England, and love all three meats, but finding them anywhere in my area (North Houston) texas.
