Papet Vaudois Pork Sausage Leek Hotpot Recipes

PAPET VAUDOIS - (PORK SAUSAGE & LEEK HOTPOT)

Steps:

• Melt the butter over low heat and fry the onions, garlic and leeks for 3 minutes.
• Then add the bouillon, white wine and potatoes, bring to a boil and reduce heat and season with salt and pepper.
• Place the sausage on top of the vegetables, cover and cook on low heat for 45 minutes.
• Now remove the lid and boil off some of the liquid.
• To serve, arrange the vegetables on a warm platter and top with the sausages.

LAZY PORK HOT POT

Steps:

• Combine broth, sherry, soy, garlic, ginger, and mushroom stems in a medium pot. Bring to a boil over high heat then reduce heat to low and simmer until broth is infused with flavors, about 30 minutes.
• Strain broth, return to pot over high heat, add broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, add pork and mushrooms and cook until pork is just cooked through, about 3 minutes.
• Garnish with green onions and sesame oil, if using, and serve.

FRYING-PAN SAUSAGE HOTPOT

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a medium frying pan (one the sausages will fit in fairly snugly). Add the sausages and fry for 8-10 mins, turning them often. Turn the grill to high. Splash a couple of tablespoons of red wine into the pan if you are using it, then pour in the stock and stir in the caramelised red onions. Allow the mixture to bubble for 3-4 mins, so it thickens a little and turns into a rich gravy. Remove from the heat.
• Spread the potatoes so they roughly cover the sausages and gravy. Put the frying pan under the grill for about 8 mins until the potatoes turn crisp and golden. Serve while bubbling and hot - there is no need to add seasoning.

SLOW-COOKED PORK, CIDER & SAGE HOTPOT

Steps:

• Heat half of the oil in a deep ovenproof frying pan, or flameproof casserole dish, and fry the pork pieces over a medium high heat in batches until seared all over, then transfer to a plate. Add another 1 tbsp oil to the pan, if you need to, while you're cooking the batches. Once all the pork is seared, transfer to a plate and set aside.
• Add another 1 tbsp oil to the pan with a little butter and fry half the leeks with a pinch of salt for 10 mins until tender. Add the garlic, fry for a minute, then stir in the flour.
• Pour in the cider, a little at a time, stirring to pick up any bits stuck to the bottom of the pan and to combine everything. Add the stock, bay leaves and seared pork, then simmer, half-covered with a lid for 1-1½ hrs until the meat is just tender (it will later cook to the point of falling apart in the oven). Can be prepared a day ahead.
• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Simmer uncovered for a few minutes to reduce the sauce, if you need to - it shouldn't be too liquid or the potatoes will sink into the sauce. Stir in the parsley, chopped sage, remaining leeks, and the cream, then season well.
• Peel both types of potatoes and cut into slices 2mm thick, by hand or using a mandoline. Alternate layers of potato and sweet potato in circles over the pie, or randomly, if you prefer. Dot the cubed butter over the top and bake for 1-1½ hrs until the potato is tender. Nestle in the whole sage leaves, brushed in a little oil, for the last 10 mins. Leave to rest for 10 mins before serving.

HOT PORK PAN SAUSAGE

Steps:

• In large mixing bowl add all ingredients except meat and mix well. Add meat and combine with seasoning mixture by kneading, folding and turning like bread dough. Mix until meat is uniformally seasoned but do not overwork or it will start to emulsify.
• Cover and chill in refrigerator several hours or overnight.
• Divide meat into desired portions (a 1/4 cup dry measure makes 2 oz by weight of this meat mixture) and form into patties ( a 2 1/2" cookie cutter ring forms a nice 2 oz patty).
• Put the patties on a parchment lined cookie sheet and freeze.
• When frozen transfer the patties to freezer bags and store in freezer until ready to use.
• To cook thaw and pan fry until done.
