Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the sausage mixture

    In a large bowl, combine the ground pork, minced garlic, fennel seeds, paprika, black pepper, salt, and red pepper flakes. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

  2. 2

    Add fresh herbs

    Fold in the chopped fresh parsley to the sausage mixture. Ensure it's evenly distributed throughout the meat.

  3. 3

    Optional: Prepare sausage casings

    If using sausage casings, rinse them thoroughly and soak them in warm water for about 30 minutes to make them pliable.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Shape the sausages

    If not using casings, shape the sausage mixture into patties or logs, about 4-6 inches long. If using casings, stuff the mixture into the casings using a sausage stuffer.

  2. 5

    Cook the sausages

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the shaped sausages and cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally until they are browned and cooked through.

  3. 6

    Serve

    Remove the sausages from the skillet and let them rest for a few minutes before slicing or serving whole. Enjoy with your favorite sides.
