Garlicky Pork Sausage With Red Wine Prunes And Rosemary Recipes

GARLIC PORK SAUSAGE

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the pork, garlic, sage, salt and crushed red pepper. Run the meat mixture through the meat grinder outfitted with the die with the largest holes. Repeat so that all of the meat goes through the grinder twice.
• Place half of the meat mixture in the bowl of a standing mixer equipped with the paddle attachment. Add half of the water and half of the Parmesan and beat on medium-high for 3 to 4 minutes. Repeat this process with the remaining meat, water and cheese.
• Make, cook and eat a test patty to make sure the sausage is delicious.
• Attach the sausage-stuffing attachment to the meat grinder, keeping the grinder blade and die in place also.
• Keeping the sausage casing very wet, slide a manageable length onto the sausage stuffer. Place a generous amount of the prepared sausage mixture into the grinder pan. Give the casings a slight bit of resistance by holding onto the sausage stuffer with your three last fingers and letting the casing slip through your thumb and forefinger. Turn the machine on a medium-low speed and fill the casings, being careful to avoid any air bubbles. To get the feel for stuffing the sausages, you might have to do a couple tries. The first couple might be too loose or too tight; that's ok--think of them as the first pancake (the one that never comes out right that you have to throw away).
• Twist the casings to create sausages that are even in size. Tie each with butcher's twine to keep them nicely sealed. Prick the sausages with a pin or skewer all over to allow steam to escape while cooking (you don't want to have a blowout).
• Preheat a grill or saute pan. Cook the sausages until cooked through, 7 to 8 minutes on each side. Serve immediately or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Heat a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir sausage in the hot skillet until slightly cooked, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and rosemary; continue to cook until sausage is browned and crumbly, 3 to 5 more minutes. Remove to a mixing bowl with a slotted spoon, leaving drippings in the pan and the heat set at medium-high.
• Stir butter into the pan until melted. Gradually whisk in flour until smooth. Reduce heat to medium and cook until flour is light brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Gradually whisk in water, cream, and maple syrup and cook until gravy has thickened, 3 to 5 more minutes.
• Meanwhile, crumble sausage into smaller bits.
• Once gravy has fully thickened, stir in cooked sausage and ricotta cheese. Reduce heat and simmer for 12 to 15 more minutes until the consistency is like sour cream. If gravy is too thin, whisk in more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time.

Place pork tenderloins in roasting pan; rub with 3 1/2 tablespoons garlic paste. Set remaining garlic paste aside. Roast pork tenderloins until thermometer inserted into thickest part registers 150°F, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat remaining garlic paste and dried crushed red pepper in heavy large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add 12 cups sliced escarole; cover and cook until wilted, about 6 minutes. Mix in chicken stock.

POT-ROASTED PORK WITH RED WINE, SAGE AND ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Soak the dried porcini in 1 cup (250ml) boiling water for 10 minutes to soften (reserve liquid when draining).
• Meanwhile melt half the butter in a flameproof casserole over medium-low heat.
• Season pork well with salt and pepper; then place fat side down in the pan; gently sear for 6 to 8 minutes until well coloured and the fat has rendered.
• Turn and sear other side for 4 to 5 minutes. (Our pork loin which was close to 2 kilo took a total of about 20 minutes to get a nice golden colour.).
• Remove pork from the pan, drain off any excess fat, and melt the remaining butter (we added some more olive oil); add the garlic, sage and rosemary and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes or until golden.
• Squeeze porcini to remove excess liquid and set soaking liquid aside.
• Return pork to the pan (at this point we put into a large baking dish); add mushrooms, tomatoes and 1 cup (250ml) wine and season well with salt and pepper.
• Cover the surface with a baking paper, tucking in the edges as this ensures that the dish will not dry out.
• Reduce heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes (we put into the oven at about 160 degrees Celsius. Please note our pork was larger than called for in the recipe).
• Turn the pork, baste with the sauce, add the remaining wine and reserved mushroom stock.
• Recover with baking paper and cook for a further 40 to 50 minutes until the sauce is rich and the pork is tender (ours was in the oven longer).
• If the sauce starts to dry out, add splashes of water or wine to maintain the moisture level.
• The sauce will intensify in colour but shouldn't burn.
• POLENTA:.
• For the polenta, place 3 cups (750ml) water ina saucepan; bring to a boil; gradually add the polenta, whisking constantly; reduce the heat to low and cook, whisking for 8 to 10 minutes.
• Remove from the heat, fold in butter and Parmesan cheese, season and keep warm.
• Remove the pork from the sauce, thickly slice.
• Serve with the polenta, drizzle with sauce, and garnish with parsley.
