Breakfast Sausage

Adapted from an internet recipe.
Easy to make, and very good, I have made this on several occasions, I need to make this more often. Keep in mind, the longer you refrigerate this, up to 24 hours before cooking, the flavors will blend together better. Sage is the key ingredient in breakfast sausage.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 kilo minced pork, OR you can use chicken, (2 lbs)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground sage
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • pinch ground cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon thyme
  • 1 teaspoon parsley
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

Instructions
 

  • Add the pork and all the other ingredients to a mixing bowl.
  • Mix everything together, use your hands and mix well. Refrigerate for 6 to 24 hours to allow the spices to blend well. The 24 hours is highly recommended.
  • I was going to stuff sheep casings to make links but could not find my small funnel, so I went with patties instead, and are equally as good. I made 8 patties, layered with parchment paper and froze this batch, simply take out the patties you wish to use the day before and thaw in the fridge overnight. (For patties I use a ½ cup measuring cup to measure and press in a 4¼ inch, 11 cm, patty press.)
  • Fry in a skillet over medium heat for about 5 minutes per side or until juices run clear.
  • And in link form using cellulose casings. These casings will be removed after poaching.

Notes

Minced pork will run about 100 Baht/kilo, making this about 50 cents per person for 6 people, add some fresh homemade hash browns and a couple of eggs, you have a nice breakfast for under $1 per person.
