"Dublin Coddle, a warming meal of sausages and potatoes, dates back to the 1700s, and is traditionally thought of as a city dish eaten in the winter months. Its popularity has been attributed to the fact that an Irish wife could go to bed and leave it simmering on the stove for hours, so that it might be ready for when her husband arrived home from the pub.A favorite of Jonathan Swift, the author of Gulliver’s Travels, and the dean of Christ Church in Dublin, Coddle has many references in Irish literature, including the works of James Joyce. The name ‘Coddle’ is most likely descended from caudle, which comes from the French term meaning ‘to boil gently, parboil or stew’. Today, the word is associated with gently cooked eggs… im putting in option for the slow cooker instead of the oven"

This was VERY filling! I used red potatoes (scrubbed instead of peeled) and Andouille sausage. This was my first time making Coddle (I'd actually never heard of it before this recipe) and I wasn't sure if we were supposed to eat it like soup or not... I used a slotted spoon to get the meat and potatoes and didn't add any broth to my bowl and I really liked it. I'm not sure if I served it in a traditional manner. This is cold-weather comfort food and I'll make it again. I used the slow-cooker method and it worked very well.
