What you will need:
- 3oog of white potatoes
- 300g of sweet potatoes

Method:
1. Preheat the oven to 190ºC / Fan 170ºC / Gas Mark 5
2. Peel all the potatoes, cut into even sized chunks and place in a large pan.
3. Add just enough cold water to cover and a pinch of salt, bring to the boil and simmer for 10 mins
4. In the meantime, place the sausages on a baking tray and cook in the oven for 20 mins, turning halfway so they are brown on all sides

6 Return the vegetables to the pan, add the Lake District Dairy Co. Original Quark and use a potato masher to create a smooth mash. Season to taste and add the chives if using
7. Use a fork to fluff up the potatoes and serve hot with the sausages
8. For a fun Halloween twist: Make a witch’s hand by sticking the sausages into the mash to look like fingers, placing a dab of mustard on the end of each sausage to look like fingernails
