Sauteed Chinese Sausage Recipes

Steps:

• Cook broccoli:
• Cut broccoli stems diagonally into 1-inch pieces and coarsely chop leaves. Cook stems in a large pot of boiling salted water until just tender, about4 minutes. Stir in leaves and cook 1 minute. Drain in a colander, then rinse under cold water to stop cooking. Do not squeeze out excess water.
• Cook polenta:
• Bring water with salt to a boil in a 3-quart heavy saucepan, then add polenta in a thin stream, whisking constantly. Cook over moderate heat, whisking, 2 minutes. Reduce heat to low and simmer polenta, covered, stirring for 1 minute after every 10 minutes of cooking, 45 minutes total. Stir in butter, cream, and cheese and remove from heat.
• Sauté sausage and garlic while polenta cooks:
• Heat oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then sauté sausage, stirring and breaking up meat into large pieces with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer with a slotted spoon to a plate. Reduce heat to moderate, then cook garlic in skillet, stirring, until golden, about 2 minutes.
• Add broccoli and cook, stirring and scraping up brown bits from bottom of skillet, 2 minutes. Return sausage to skillet and toss with greens, salt, and pepper. Serve over polenta.

Steps:

• Peel the cucumber, cut it in half lengthwise, scrape out the seeds and cut the halves crosswise into 1/8-inch-thick slices. Cut the red onion lengthwise into slivers. In a large bowl, toss the cucumber and onion slices together with the coriander, basil, mint and scallions and reserve.
• Put sausage links in a skillet with 1/4 cup water and saute until the water has evaporated and the sausages are lightly browned. Do not let them become hard or dry. Remove sausages, cut diagonally into 1/8-inch-thick slices and keep warm.
• Remove skillet from stove and add fish sauce, lime juice, garlic and red pepper and mix together.
• Add sausages and fish sauce dressing to the bowl of greens and toss to mix well. Serve on warm plates with plain white rice in serving bowls.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion; saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add sausage; cook until browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Add bok choy; cook until wilted, about 1 minute.

Steps:

• Cook the pasta according to package directions until cooked but still firm to the bite (al dente). While the pasta is cooking, place the sausages in a small skillet over medium heat and add 1/4 cup water. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes. Turn sausages at 5 minutes and add more water if necessary.
• Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and coloured pepper strips and sauté for 10 minutes. Add the garlic and rosemary, and season with black pepper to taste. Lower heat and cook for 5 minutes more.
• Remove sausages from small skillet and slice in half lengthwise, then crosswise into 1/2-inch slices. Add to the onions and peppers. Add balsamic vinegar and toss. Cook mixture until sausage is no longer pink in the middle. Serve over cooked pasta.
