    Sausage Bites

    How was your Onam celebrations? Hope you had a great time with your friends & family. We celebrated Onam at our friend Vinod & Deepthi’s  place. I know I didnt wish you Onam. I didnt make anything special for Onam & I felt bad wishing you Onam empty handed. However if you are a Non Resident Malayalee who is waiting to celebrate Onam during the weekend, please have a look at my Onam recipes, hope you will like something. If you have already celebrated Onam and want to taste some non veg stuff, here is a quick option.

    I’ve posted only one sausage recipe before, sausage packets. I got that recipe from one of our friend’s when she served it as a starter for a party. This recipe is also from another friend, my dearest friend, Maryann. This recipe is a breeze to make & a total crowd pleaser.

    Here is the recipe:

    1. Sausage – 5
    2. Ginger & garlic – 1 tsp, each grated
    3. Onion – 1 medium, finely chopped
    4. Pepper powder – 1/4 – 1/2 tsp
    5. Tomato sauce – 1 tbsp
      Soya sauce – 1/2 -1 tbsp
      Hot sauce/Tabasco sauce – 1 tsp (refer notes)

    Boil the sausage & cut into bite size pieces. Heat oil in a pan & add finely chopped onion. When it becomes brown add grated ginger & garlic. Fry for 2 minutes & add pepper powder. Mix well & add all the sauces. Combine well & add the cooked sausages. Mix well & keep cooking on low flame for 5-7 minutes. Give it a stir in between & remove from fire when it is roasted well. You can serve this as a starter/appetizer or as a side dish for fried rice.

    Notes: If you want to make this as a side dish, you can add capsicum, celery etc along with onion & follow the same recipe. I didnt add any salt since the sausage & soya sauce has enough salt. However you can add it as per your requirements. You can also use the small size cocktail sausage for this. You can substitute hot/tabasco sauce with chilli sauce.

      Hey Maria,
      I was very happy seeing this one becoz I love chicken sausage.I tried it and it was super..Even my mom-in-law who usually says no to sausage enjoyed it..
      I tried the same with mutton sausage,but the mutton smell was still there..May be the sausage I got was not that good..

      Thank you so much and please post these kind of smart dishes..

      • http://www.mariasmenu.com Maria

        Hi Haz,

        Thanks dear :) It’s nice to hear that you n your family liked it.

        I havent had mutton sausage yet…its something new to me..

        Please check out other appetizer recipes in the snacks & starter section on the left side of the blog, I hope you find something interesting..

        Cheers

      Hi Maria, I’m from Irinjalakuda (near to your place :) ) and
      now settled in UK
      with my family. It was Leeza one of my relative who recommended your website to
      me one year before I think.  I love cooking and always want to do
      ‘Pareekshanam’. I have tried lots of your recipes and it all came out very
      well. When we celebrated my Son’s first birthday (two weeks back), I made
      ‘Sausage Bites’ for around 150 people. It was a huge hit and I don’t know to
      say thank you for such an easy and delicious recipe. I’m planning to make Mutton Biriyani tomorrow..of course your recipe :) Thanks a lot…Joxy

      • http://mariasmenu.com Maria Jose

        Hi Joxy,

        Thank you so much for your lovely comment :) It’s a pleasure to know that the recipes from the site worked well for you. A special thanks to your relative Leeza for recommending this space to you.

        Belated b’day wishes to your little one & May God bless him abundantly! Btw, I do hope the mutton biriyani came out well.

        Cheers
        Maria

      that was yumm,, probably cz I am a fan of sausages. Works perfect when u don’t have anything in your refrigerator or may be when you don’t want to make anything elaborate :)

      • http://mariasmenu.com Maria Jose

        Hi Rejily,

        Thank you! Yep, its a quick & simple & tasty snack for a lazy day ;)

        Cheers
