Sausage Apple And Sage Pie Recipes

SAUSAGE WITH APPLE AND SAGE

Steps:

• Slice the pork sausage into 1/4-inch/1/2 cm-inch slices on the bias. Cut the apple into 24 cubes. Heat the oil in a saute pan and fry the sausage slices on both sides until golden brown, remove to a platter. Wash the pan before melting the butter in the pan for the apples. Add the sugar, and fry the apple cubes, tossing occasionally, until golden on all sides. Add a little more oil to the pan, if needed, and fry the sage leaves until slightly crisp, 30 seconds to 1 minute.
• Lay a fried sage leaf on each sausage slice. Top with a cube of sauteed apple. Pierce with a toothpick and serve.

SAGE, SAUSAGE AND APPLE DRESSING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Put the stuffing cubes in a large bowl and set aside. Butter a 3-quart casserole dish.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and break it up with a wooden spoon. Cook until it loses most of its pink color, but not so much that it's dry, about 5 minutes. Add the sausage and pan drippings to the stuffing cubes. Melt the remaining butter in the pan. Add the onion, apple, celery, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook until the vegetables get soft, about 5 minutes. Add the broth and parsley and bring to a boil.
• Pour the vegetable mixture over the stuffing cubes and toss until evenly moistened. Mix in the walnuts and eggs. Loosely pack the dressing in the prepared pan and cook uncovered until the top forms a crust, about 40 minutes. Drizzle about 2 tablespoons of turkey pan drippings or melted butter over the top. Cook until the top is crisp and golden, about 20 minutes more.

SAVORY PORK, APPLE AND SAGE PIES

Steps:

• To make dough: In a food processor, pulse together the flour and the salt. Add butter and lard or shortening, and pulse until mixture forms coarse crumbs.
• Add ice water, 2 tablespoons at a time, pulsing briefly between additions, until mixture just comes together; it should not be wet. Form dough into eight equal balls; tightly wrap each ball in plastic wrap, flatten into a disk and refrigerate while you prepare filling.
• To prepare filling: Combine wine and currants in a small bowl and set aside. In a large skillet, heat oil. Add onion and garlic, and cook, stirring, until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high; add apple and cook until slightly softened, about 2 minutes. Stir in cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; cook 1 minute more. Add currants and wine, and cook, scraping up any browned bits, until liquid has evaporated, about 30 seconds. Let mixture cool slightly.
• In a large bowl, mix pork with remaining salt and pepper. Stir in the apple mixture, pine nuts and sage.
• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll one ball into a 6-inch round. Mound 1/8 of the filling on half the dough. Fold other half over filling and crimp edges to seal. Transfer pocket to baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough and filling.
• Cut several slits into top of each pastry. Bake until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbling, 40 minutes. Let cool 15 minutes before serving.

SAUSAGE HASH WITH APPLES & SAGE

Steps:

• Heat 2 Tbs. oil over low heat in a 12-inch non-stick skillet (so potatoes don't stick). While skillet heats, prepare onion and Italian sausage as directed above. A few minutes before cooking, increase heat to medium-high. When oil starts to send up wisps of smoke, add onion and sausage; cook, stirring often, until golden brown. Meanwhile, dice potatoes and apples and toss with remaining oil. Transfer sausage mixture to a bowl and reserve.
• Add potato mixture to empty skillet; cook, stirring only occasionally so they form a golden-brown crust, about 10 minutes. As potatoes cook, mix ketchup, mustard, dried sage and fresh parsley and 2 Tbs. of water. (Recipe can be prepared to this point up to 2 hours ahead. Spread hot potatoes on a large lipped cookie sheet; cover when cool. Return skillet to medium-high; add potatoes and re-crisp.)
• Return reserved sausage mixture to skillet; stir in ketchup mixture, then season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until hash has nicely browned, about 5 minutes longer.

SAUSAGE, APPLE & SAGE ROLL

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Line a large baking tray with baking parchment. Heat 1 tsp of the oil in a small non-stick saucepan and gently fry the onion and apple for 6-8 mins, stirring regularly, until softened and lightly browned. Leave to cool for 5 mins.
• Place 1 sheet of pastry on your work surface, with the short end closest to you, and brush lightly with oil. Place another sheet on top, but off-set roughly 6cm to the right, and brush with a little more oil. Top with the final sheet, off-set another 6cm to the right. The pastry rectangle should be roughly 40 x 45cm.
• Squeeze the sausagemeat from the skins into a large bowl. Add the onion, apple and sage, and mix well. Form the pork mixture into a large sausage shape and place across the pastry, about 8cm in from one short end and 8cm from each side.
• Fold up the bottom of the pastry until it begins to cover the filling, then fold in the sides. Roll the pastry from the bottom, gently but firmly, to enclose the filling. Place on the baking tray and brush with the remaining oil. Bake for 30 mins or until the filling is cooked and the pastry is golden brown and crisp. Serve with mixed salad leaves.

SAGE AND APPLE SAUSAGE PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

• Place pizza crust on a baking sheet; spread with sauce. Top with veggie sausage, veggie bacon, peppers, cooked onion, Parmesan and mozzarella.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes, until heated through and cheese is melted.

SAUSAGE AND APPLE PIE IN A CHEDDAR CRUST

Steps:

• *Used a combination of Granny Smiths (for their tart flavor and crisp texture) and Cortlands (for their sweetness and softer texture). If you use all Granny Smiths or all Cortlands (or other kinds of apples), adjust the amount of sugar to your taste.
• CRUST:.
• In a medium-size mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Using an electric mixer, a pastry blender or fork, or your fingers, cut and mix the cheese and butter into the flour mixture until the fat and flour form a crumbly mixture. Add the lemon juice or vinegar, then sprinkle on just enough water so that you can gather the dough into a cohesive ball.
• Divide the dough in half, and flatten each half into a 1-inch thick round. Wrap one of the rounds in plastic wrap or waxed paper, and refrigerate it while you work with the other. Transfer the remaining dough to a well-floured work surface. Roll it into a 12-inch circle, using as few strokes of the rolling pin as possible; the fewer times you touch the crust at this point, the more tender it'll be when it's baked. Transfer the circle of dough to a 9-inch pie plate (a giant spatula works great here), and gently fit it to the pan's contours. Again, if you push and stretch the dough too much during this stage, it'll shrink when you put it in the oven.
• FILLING:.
• Peel, core and slice the apples. In a large, shallow frying pan, cook the apples with the salt, cinnamon, cider or juice, and sugar for 15 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the liquid is syrupy. Add the cooked sausage.
• Spray the crust with some nonstick vegetable oil spray (this helps it stay crisp), then spoon the filling into the crust. Roll out the remaining crust, and center it over the filling. Press the edges of the top and bottom crust together, fold them under (onto the top of the pan's rim), and crimp.
• BAKE:.
• The pie in a preheated 425°F oven for 15 minutes, then lower the heat to 375°F and bake for an additional 35 to 45 minutes, till the crust is very brown. Remove the pie from the oven, and serve it warm or at room temperature.

SAUSAGE, APPLE AND SAGE PIE

Steps:

• Sift flour and pinch of salt into a bowl. Cut fat into cubes; add to flour. Use your fingertips to rub fat into the flour until mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Add water very gradually, stirring with a knife. When dough just starts to stick together, knead lightly until it forms a ball. (Or, pulse flour and salt in a food processor. Add cold butter; pulse until crumbly. Add lard and 2 tablespoons water; pulse. Add remaining tablespoon water; pulse again. Turn onto counter; shape into a ball.) Wrap pastry ball in plastic wrap; let rest in refrigerator, at least 15 minutes. (Store for up to 2 days in the refrigerator; or freeze until ready to use.) Heat oven to 400 degrees. Roll out a little less than half the pastry; use to line a shallow 9-inch pie plate. Roll out remaining pastry about 3/4-inch larger than the pie plate; set aside. Heat oil in a large skillet. Add onions; cook gently until softened, 8-10 minutes. Add meat to onions. Cook until meat is browned, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon and breaking up meat, 5 minutes. Off the heat, stir in mustard, sage, apples and creme fraiche or sour cream. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix well; allow to cool.
