Lamb Sausage Baguettes Recipes

Steps:

• To make the poaching liquid: In a shallow 3-quart pot, add all ingredients. Bring to a simmer.
• To make the lamb sausage: Mix all ingredients except bread crumbs in a large bowl; add 1 to 2 cups bread crumbs until mixture can form a shape without sticking to your hands. Cut cellophane into 8 by 8-inch squares. Place 2 tablespoons of mixture in a tube shape and roll into cellophane, twisting the ends like a tootsie roll for a tight sausage shape. Test 1 sausage in boiling poaching liquid for approximately 20 minutes before cooking all sausages. Let cool in refrigerator for 15 minutes. Slice sausage to check consistency, if it falls apart, add more bread crumbs to mixture.

Steps:

• Combine the lamb, pork fatback, mint, chipotles, chives, black pepper, orange zest and 2 tablespoons salt in a bowl. Transfer to a large plastic zip-top bag and refrigerate overnight.
• At least 30 minutes before grinding the meat, place all of your tools (including the meat grinder parts, stand mixer bowl, stand mixer paddle attachment and sausage stuffer parts) in the freezer to chill.
• Using your meat grinder, grind the marinated meat mixture through the small die plate into the chilled bowl of the stand mixer. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes, then return the mixture to the mixer. Add the milk and wine and beat on medium speed using the chilled paddle attachment until combined. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Stuff the sausages and, for best results, refrigerate overnight.
• Before cooking, pierce each sausage several times with a pin. Grill over medium heat until the center registers 160 degrees F, 10 to 12 minutes. (You can also pan-fry or broil the sausages.) Slice the sausages lengthwise and serve on a split toasted baguette with crumbled feta and roasted peppers.

Steps:

• Toss sausages in oil in a roasting tin and roast at 200C/180C fan/ gas 6 for 20 mins until browned.
• Mix soy sauce, honey and mustard together. Drain the fat from the sausages and pour over most of the soy mix, coating thoroughly. Return to the oven for 10 mins until sticky. Serve in baguettes with salad leaves and the remaining soy mix.

Steps:

• Sprinkle the inside of the baguette with a little olive oil, vinegar, oregano and a little seasoning. Layer the lamb, salad veg and feta, then wrap tightly in cling film.

Steps:

• Grind the lamb, fat from the lamb kidney (do not add the kidney) and garlic with the medium size holes of the grinder, ¼ inch in diameter. Add all the remaining ingredients, including the water, but not the casing. Test the mixture at this stage by preparing a miniature patty and frying it in a teaspoon of oil in a skillet. Should it need salt, it can be added at this time.
• Tie one end of the casing tightly to hold the filling. Fill the casing with the lamb mixture, twisting it around every 4 inches to make individual sausages.
• The merguez can be eaten in various ways the next day. The simple method of cooking is to fry them in hot vegetable oil until brown and crisp. Very little oil is needed since the sausage contains lamb fat. Serve warm. Makes about 10 to 12 sausages.
• NOTE: Algerians often prepare merguez with the cheaper cuts of lamb, especially the scraps left over from trimming the more expensive parts. You don't have to do this since the meaty leg of the lamb is an ideal cut that can be used.
• Sumac is that rare Mediterranean and Middle East seasoning that was used at one time as a salt substitute. The dried reddish crushed powder has a lemon/salt flavor and is used in meat and chicken dishes. It adds an important flavor to Algerian merguez.

Steps:

• Cut lamb and pork fat into 1" chunks. Toss with all remaining ingredients except wine and refrigerate for 12 hours. Spread on a tray and freeze for 1 hour until meat is partially, but not completely, frozen. Chill meat grinder and bowl for 1 hour in fridge.
• Grind using a 1/8th inch die. Add reduced wine, and stir to mix. Stuff into medium pork casings.
• Sausage is really easy to make, especially if you have a Kitchen Aid stand mixer. Get the grinding and stuffing attachments.

Steps:

• The first step is to make the chutney.
• Peel the mango and cut into large chunks.
• Heat a small saucepan over medium heat and add the mango, sugar, vinegar, ginger, chili, raisins, mustard seeds and salt.
• Stir well to dissolve the sugar.
• Once the mixture starts to bubble, turn the heat down to a low and simmer for 1 hour.
• Once the chutney is ready, it can be stored in an clean and airtight jar for up to a month.
• Now for the sausages.
• Gently poke a few small holes in the sausages with a sharp knife. This will help with the release of fat and juices when cooking.
• Heat the barbecue or fry pan to a medium heat and cook the sausages until done.
• Cut the breadstick into manageable sections, fill with butter or mayonnaise, a handful of greens, a sausage and top with mango chutney.
