Pork Sausages With Sautéed Apples Potato Mash Recipes

PORK SAUSAGES WITH SAUTéED APPLES & POTATO MASH

Steps:

• Wash and dry the fresh produce.
• Preheat a skillet over medium heat.
• Peel the potatoes, then halve lengthwise and crosswise; transfer the quarters to a small saucepan. Cover with hot water (from the tap) by about 1 inch and bring to a boil over high heat.
• Place the sausages on a plate and rub with a little olive oil.
• Once the skillet is hot, add the sausages. Cook, turning occasionally, until the sausages are browned and cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes. Once done, transfer to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
• Quarter the apples lengthwise, then cut out the core and stem from each section; cut each quarter lengthwise into 4 thin wedges.
• Once the water in the saucepan is boiling, reduce the heat to medium and cook until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a knife, 8 to 12 minutes. Once done, reserve about 1 cup of liquid and drain the rest. Cover the saucepan to keep warm.
• Once the sausages have been transferred, add the apples to the skillet. Cook, stirring frequently, until they are lightly browned and softened, 4 to 6 minutes. Once done, remove from the heat.
• Add ½ of the reserved liquid, butter, salt, and pepper to the potatoes; mash with a potato masher until smooth. Add more liquid to thin out the mash if needed.
• To serve, divide the mashed potatoes, sautéed apples, and sausages between plates. Enjoy!

HOMEMADE PORK AND APPLE SAUSAGES

Steps:

• First make the breadcrumbs in a food processor, so they are fine.
• Mince (or grind) the pork, then add the onion to the grinder, and finally the apple (peeled and cored). Add all the herbs and nutmeg and salt and pepper to taste.
• Fill your sausage filler (either machine or hand operated one) and put the skins over the end of the nozzle.
• Fill slowly so that the skins do not burst, and twist the finished sausages into the required size.
• Since nothing has been pre-frozen, these will freeze well.
• Various adaptations can be made, by adding either sun-dried tomato puree, or garlic puree for instance.
• Prior to cooking, pierce the skins to prevent bursting.
