GRILLED SAUSAGES WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS AND APPLES

Steps:

• Prepare grill for high heat.
• With a fork, poke sausages several times. Place in a pot, cover with water, and simmer over medium-high heat until cooked through, about 7 minutes. Remove from heat, and set aside.
• Warm butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in onions, and cook until soft and translucent. Stir in apples, vinegar, and brown sugar; cook, stirring gently, until caramelized, about 10 to 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, place sausages on grill (or under broiler), and cook until well browned. Serve on a mound of caramelized apples and onions.

SAUSAGE, MUSTARD & APPLE HASH

Steps:

• Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil. Add the potatoes and cook for 4 mins. Drain and leave to steam dry in a colander.
• Heat half the butter and 1 tbsp olive oil in a large frying pan or shallow casserole dish over a medium-high heat. Add the apple wedges and fry on each side for 5 mins or until golden brown and starting to caramelise. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside on a plate.
• In the same pan, heat the remaining butter and a little more oil over a medium heat and add the potatoes and sausage chunks. Fry for 10-15 mins, turning every so often until the potatoes and sausage are crisp and golden brown. Season to taste. Stir through the mustard and the apple wedges, then scatter over some thyme leaves, and serve with watercress salad.

BAKED SAUSAGES WITH APPLES SHEET PAN DINNER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 F degrees.
• In a large bowl combine the apple cubes, fingerling potatoes, baby carrots, onion, sage and rosemary. Drizzle the honey and olive oil over, season generously with salt and pepper then toss really well so that everything.
• Arrange the veggies and apples in a large shallow roasting pan. Arrange the sausages in and around the vegetables.
• Bake for 30 minutes or until golden and cooked through.

SAGE, SAUSAGE AND APPLE DRESSING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Put the stuffing cubes in a large bowl and set aside. Butter a 3-quart casserole dish.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and break it up with a wooden spoon. Cook until it loses most of its pink color, but not so much that it's dry, about 5 minutes. Add the sausage and pan drippings to the stuffing cubes. Melt the remaining butter in the pan. Add the onion, apple, celery, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook until the vegetables get soft, about 5 minutes. Add the broth and parsley and bring to a boil.
• Pour the vegetable mixture over the stuffing cubes and toss until evenly moistened. Mix in the walnuts and eggs. Loosely pack the dressing in the prepared pan and cook uncovered until the top forms a crust, about 40 minutes. Drizzle about 2 tablespoons of turkey pan drippings or melted butter over the top. Cook until the top is crisp and golden, about 20 minutes more.

HOMEMADE PORK AND APPLE SAUSAGES

Steps:

• First make the breadcrumbs in a food processor, so they are fine.
• Mince (or grind) the pork, then add the onion to the grinder, and finally the apple (peeled and cored). Add all the herbs and nutmeg and salt and pepper to taste.
• Fill your sausage filler (either machine or hand operated one) and put the skins over the end of the nozzle.
• Fill slowly so that the skins do not burst, and twist the finished sausages into the required size.
• Since nothing has been pre-frozen, these will freeze well.
• Various adaptations can be made, by adding either sun-dried tomato puree, or garlic puree for instance.
• Prior to cooking, pierce the skins to prevent bursting.

GLAZED APPLES AND SAUSAGE

Steps:

• Cook the sausage according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, combine the apples, onion, water and brown sugar. Cook over medium heat for 5-8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the sausage; heat through.

SAUSAGE, APPLES, AND NOODLES

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the egg noodles, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 5 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink.
• Place a large skillet over medium-high heat; cook the sausages until completely cooked, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Stir together the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
• Pour the melted butter into the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish; layer half of the cooked egg noodles into the bottom of the dish; top with half of the sausage slices and half of the apple slices; sprinkle about half of the cinnamon-sugar mix over the dish. Repeat layers with remaining noodles, sausage, apples, and cinnamon-sugar. Dot with the butter pieces.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the apples are soft, 30 to 45 minutes.

SMOKED SAUSAGE AND APPLES

Steps:

• Slice smoked sausage into 1 inch coins, and place in a microwavable bowl with a lid.
• Add apples and onions.
• Sprinkle brown sugar over all. Add water. Cover.
• Microwave on high for about 5 mins or till apples are tender. (I use my fresh vegetable button for hard veggies).
• May season with salt and pepper if care to. We normally don't.
• Note: If you do not have a bowl with lid that will go into microwave, you may use plastic wrap, just be sure to vent it, by folding in one corner of wrap to make a little hole.

LENTIL SOUP WITH SMOKED SAUSAGE AND APPLES

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onion, season with salt, and cook, stirring, until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the half the chopped apples, and cook, stirring until softened, adjusting the heat as necessary to avoid scorching, about 5 minutes.
• Add the celery, garlic, sage and thyme, and stir to combine. Pour in the cider and let it come to a bubble. Add the sausage, lentils, nutmeg and 4 cups water to the pot. Season with 1 teaspoon salt and a generous amount of pepper. Let the soup come to a boil, then decrease the heat to maintain a low simmer. Cover the pot and cook until the lentils are tender, 35 to 40 minutes.
• Just before you are ready to eat, add the vinegar. Stir together the sour cream and mustard, then stir the mixture into the soup. Taste and add more salt and pepper if necessary. Serve in bowls topped with the scallions and remaining chopped apples.

SHEET-PAN SAUSAGES WITH CARAMELIZED SHALLOTS AND APPLES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 425 degrees. Cut the shallots lengthwise into 1/2-inch-thick wedges. Core the apples and cut into 1/2-inch-thick wedges. Place the shallots and apples on a sheet pan, drizzle with the 1 tablespoon olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and toss to coat. Roast the mixture for 10 to 15 minutes, until the shallots are just starting to brown at the edges.
• Meanwhile, place the sausages on a plate. Using a fork, prick a few holes in each sausage. Drizzle the sausages with olive oil and toss to coat.
• Add the rosemary and mustard to the pan with the apples and shallots, and toss, spreading everything out into one even layer. Arrange the sausages on the pan, evenly distributed, and roast for 25 to 30 minutes, flipping the sausages and tossing the apples and shallots with the juices released from the sausages halfway through, until the sausages are browned and cooked to 160 degrees and the shallots are tender and caramelized.
• Transfer the sausages to a serving platter and discard the rosemary sprigs. Pour the vinegar over the apples and shallots, and toss well, scraping up any browned bits from the pan. Transfer to the serving platter with the sausages, sprinkle with parsley, if using, and serve immediately.

• Pour the juice into a small saucepan. If you have less than a cup, add more juice or cider to make 1 cup, then turn the heat to low and cook until the juice has reduced in amount to about one quarter its amount and has nearly caramelized. Be careful not to let it burn. This will take about 10 to 12 minutes.
• Spoon the sausage into the apple mixture, pour over the reduced cider, and mix well.
