Recipe for Homemade Sausages
This recipe makes 16 sausages.
Ingredients
- 1 lb pork mince
- 2-4 teaspoons mixed fresh herbs
- 1 large clove of garlic
- 1 egg
- 2 ½ oz soft white breadcrumbs
- Salt and pepper
- A little oil for frying
Method
- Place all the ingredients above, except the oil, into a large bowl and mix really well with your hands or a wooden spoon.
- Divide the mixture into 16 pieces and roll each piece into a sausage shape.
- Heat some oil in your frying pan and cook until golden on all sides.
- If using for picnics, just drain them on some kitchen roll, cool then pop into a tub to take along.
- I usually cook them in advance if doing a bbq, and then just warm them on some tin foil on top of the grill.
