Sausage 'Golf' Balls with Mustard Sauce was based on a Nigel Slater dish from his book,
Eat. I did make some changes but
wouldn't have thought of the basic approach without having seen his recipe.
The sausage balls are beyond easy
to make. No seasoning, no breadcrumbs,
no egg – just one ingredient – sausage meat.
But make sure the sausages you buy are top quality ones – I used
continental pork sausages.
All you do is remove the skin and
then roll the sausage meat into golf ball sized balls using damp hands. And your meatballs are ready to cook.
I fried them to get a nice colour
first and then put them into a moderate oven to finish cooking through.
Then to make the sauce I just put
some chicken stock with a splash of Worcestershire Sauce into the pan (after
pouring off the fat – or most of
it). After boiling that for a
minute or 2 I added ½ cup of dream, a tablespoon of Dijon mustard as well as
salt and pepper. I also added a small
amount of mustard powder and turmeric just for the colour.
After you've simmered it for a
few more minutes it can be poured over the sausage balls and you're done. Garnish with some chopped chives to make it
pretty.
Simple and very surprisingly
delicious.
This looks delicious! And I love that brand of sausage.
ReplyDeleteHow easy! And you could have it as is or over rice or noodles.
ReplyDeletewe are able to buy sausage meat with out the casings often and this looks delicious!

ReplyDeleteThese sausage golf balls look and sound delicious. I also like the easy part. I'm going to give them a try.
ReplyDeleteThey look a lot more elegant than golf balls, and delicious I'm sure.
