After the cooking time has elapsed, drain the potatoes, collecting the cooking water. Return the potatoes to the mixing bowl. Add 200 ml of milk, 25 g of butter, salt and grated nutmeg and process into a puree for 20 sec./speed 4. If necessary, add some cooking water to achieve the desired consistency.

Fry sausages

Heat 2 tbsp oil in a pan. Halve 16 Nuremberg Rostbratwurst sausages (à approx. 25 g) lengthwise and fry in it, turning, for 2–3 minutes. (Be careful as it splatters a lot.)

Serving

Spread spinach on plates. Use a tablespoon to place mashed potatoes as a body on the spinach. Use a teaspoon to attach mashed potatoes as a head and garnish with 1 cherry tomato (quartered and pitted), 1 chive stalk (cut into 4 strips) and 8 sunflower seeds. Place 8 sausage halves (be careful, they are hot!) as legs on the body.
