Leek Stewpot With Sausages Swiss Papet Vaudois

---

This very basic recipe is from the french part of switzerland. This is one of the simpler variations (there are many). Some include cream and cheese, but this one does not. I tried to use ingredients which are easily available, giving the more traditional ones in brackets. The only problem is that you might find it hard to obtain the real vaudoise-type sausages! Use any good, fat, continental-type pork sausage you like.
