Sausages

Roasted Sweet Peppers & Onions

Method

Sausages

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sausage Mixture

    In a large mixing bowl, combine ground pork, minced garlic, fennel seeds, paprika, crushed red pepper flakes, salt, black pepper, chopped parsley, and red wine vinegar. Mix well until all ingredients are well incorporated.

  2. 2

    Stuff the Casings

    Rinse the sausage casings in cold water and soak them in water for about 30 minutes. Using a sausage stuffer, carefully fill the casings with the pork mixture, being careful to avoid air pockets. Tie off the ends of the sausages with kitchen twine.

  3. 3

    Cook the Sausages

    Preheat the grill or skillet over medium heat. Cook the sausages for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are browned and cooked through.

Roasted Sweet Peppers & Onions

  1. 4

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Slice the bell peppers and onion into strips.

  2. 5

    Roast the Vegetables

    In a large bowl, toss the sliced peppers and onions with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Spread the mixture evenly on a baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and slightly charred.

Peperonata

  1. 6

    Sauté the Garlic

    In a medium saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

  2. 7

    Make the Peperonata

    Add the canned diced tomatoes, chopped basil, salt, and black pepper to the saucepan. Simmer for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly.
