Mmmmmmmm Spicy Sausage. I have never cooked with these before. I only thought that sausages could be used to make sausages. But then I realized, like many meats, Sausages could be used to make a variety of delicious things. I would like to share with you my adventures is sausage cooking.
You will require:
A pack of spicy sausages (if you are only making pasta, one or two sausages will suffice. If you would like whole sausages as well, get the whole pack!)
Pinch of Garlic
Pinch of Ginger
4 squirts of lemon
Antipasto Red Pepper Mix!
4 Big spoons of parmesan
Cream
Oil
Pasta
Observe the sausages. These were bought 2 for 6 dollars. What What. I defrosted them. They weren’t completely defrosted by the time I started cooking but that is alright.
Take one sausage and cut it up real nice like above. Boil a pot of water for your pasta.
Take your pinch of garlic and ginger and 4 squirts of lemon. This is my version of seasoning.
FRY IT! Heat up the pan a little with some oil on it. Put in your lemon ginger and garlic as well. Let it heat up. Check your pot of boiling water. Is it hot enough? Add your pasta.
Put in your sausage as well. Fry it up real nice. Let it turn brown.
Now here’s my new superstar ingredient. This Red Pepper Antipasto was only 3 dollars for a good sized jar from the grocery store. Within the depths of this jar is a delicious mixture of red pepper and onions and pretty much every other awesome tasting vegetable. I used two spoon fulls of this for a flavour explosion.
Commence flavour explosion. Add two spoonfuls of your Antipasto. Check on your boiling pot of pasta water too. Drain it if it is ready!
While your meat finishes cooking get out a tiny pan. It is time to make some Alfredo Sauce. I do it a very simple way. I line the pan with cream than throw in lots of parmesan. You want it to bubble so the parmesan melts, but you dont want it to be dry. To help the process along and feel useful, stir it non stop. It takes some practice, but once you learn its easy to do. The sauce cooks rather quickly, especially in a hot pan, So keep an eye on it. Try ot make the sauce last so it can go straight on your pasta. Once you think the parmesan has sufficiently melted add lots of pepper.
Once your pasta is ready things get really exciting. Put your fried sausage bits and delicious Antipasto into the pot.
Then add your made form scratch alfredo sauce. (You are so Pro) Mix it up and have a bite. I bet it’s delicious. Sinfully Delicious.
Now back to the rest of the pack of sausages. A nice complement to your delicious Pasta would be whole sausages. Fry these bad boys up on a little oil.
They should look like this. These didn’t taste burnt. But they sure do look it. The way to tell the sausages are ready is that they are no longer pink inside. You want it to be a light shade of brown. It’s especially difficult with spicy sausages because they are naturally pink. Just keep simmering evenly and even try a little bit and see if it tastes ready. I fried these for quite a while. Near the end I put the stovetop on low heat just to prevent any mistakes.
I served with two sides, salad and corn. I wanted to balance out the greasy deliciousness of the sausages with something healthy. If you followed my recipe and liked the results – GOOD JOB! you just made delicious SAUSAGE CONTAINING FOODS.
