Welcome to Finish Your Plate. Today, we're making a Finnish street food classic: sausage and fries with a twist.

2

Cut the new potatoes into bite-sized pieces without peeling them, as the skin is thin.

3

Rinse the potatoes to remove any dirt.

4

Add fresh onion, cut into pieces, to the potatoes.

5

Drizzle avocado oil over the potatoes and onion, then season with salt and black pepper. Mix everything together.

6

Cut the pork sausage into bite-sized pieces. Use one or two sausages depending on size.

7

Preheat the oven to 450°F (225°C).

8

Place the seasoned potatoes and sausage in the oven to bake until done, about 20 minutes.

9

While the sausage and potatoes are baking, prepare radishes by cutting off the stem and rinsing them.

10

Slice the radishes thinly using a mandolin, while wearing a cut-resistant glove for safety.

11

Once the sausage and potatoes are cooked, serve them with condiments like mustard and ketchup, along with the sliced radishes and parsley for garnish.
