I like Italian sausages, but they are pretty pricey. I usually take the meat out from the sausage casing, so I thought, why don't I just make my own simplified version of Italian sausage? This is 'good-enough' Italian sausage recipe. Hope you will like it!
Ingredients:
Ground pork - 2 cupsOnion - 1/3 cup (finely chopped)
Italian seasoning - 1 and half TBS
Salt - 1 tsp
Pepper - 2 tsp
Sugar - 1 tsp
Parsley - 2 TBS (fresh) or 1 TBS (dried)
Garlic powder - 2 tsp
Paprika - 1 tsp
Egg white - if needed
Prep:
- Chop onion finely (you can also use blender).
- Mix all ingredients in a bowl. Use your hands and mix until well blended. If it seems a bit too dry, add 1 TBS of egg white.
- You can make it into balls or use it as minced version. You can also use it as sausage patties. You can freeze them in a Ziplock Freezer bags.
Dish ideas:
- Pasta dishes
- Breakfast sausage patties
- Soup/Stew
- Pilaf
- Grill them with veggies
- Pizza toppings
Sounds good!
