Hard Cider Braised Sausages

• 1 (12-oz.) bottle hard apple cider, divided
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 1/4 pounds fresh kielbasa (Polish sausage)
• 1 yellow onion, sliced (about 1 cup)
• 8 ounces Yukon gold potatoes, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 Fuji apple, sliced (about 1 cup)
• 1 tablespoon whole-grain mustard
• 2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh thyme
• 2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh sage

1. Whisk together 1/2 cup of the cider and flour in a small bowl; set aside.
2. Heat oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high. Add sausage, and cook, turning occasionally until all sides are browned, about 5 minutes. Transfer sausage to a plate (it will not be cooked through).
3. Add onion to skillet over medium-high, and cook, stirring constantly, 3 minutes. Add potatoes, salt, and pepper; cook, stirring often until onion is translucent, about 3 minutes. Add apple slices and remaining 1 cup cider, scraping bottom of skillet with a wooden spoon to release brown bits. Bring mixture to a simmer, and return sausage to skillet. Reduce heat to medium and cook, uncovered, until sausage is cooked through and liquid is reduced, about 15 minutes.
4. Using a slotted spoon, transfer sausage and vegetables to a serving platter.
5. Whisk reserved flour mixture, mustard, thyme, and sage into skillet, and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened, about 2 minutes. Drizzle over sausage and vegetables.
