### How to Make Potato and Sausage Bake with Sour Cream Sauce

1. **Preheat the oven** to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish with olive oil.

2. **Prepare the potatoes:** Thinly slice the potatoes and soak them in cold water for 10 minutes to remove excess starch. Drain and pat dry.

3. **Cook the sausage and onions:** In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add sausage slices and cook until browned. Add chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until soft and fragrant.

4. **Make the sour cream sauce:** In a bowl, combine sour cream, milk, salt, and pepper. Mix well.

5. **Layer the bake:** Arrange half the sliced potatoes in the baking dish. Spread half the sausage mixture over the potatoes. Pour half the sour cream sauce on top. Repeat the layers with the remaining potatoes, sausage, and sauce.

6. **Add cheese:** Sprinkle grated cheese evenly over the top layer.

7. **Bake:** Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the top is golden and bubbly.

8. **Garnish and serve:** Let the bake cool slightly. Sprinkle with fresh parsley or chives if desired, and serve warm.
