Flavourful sausages with a kick of ginger, smothered in a
sticky hoisin style sauce – the perfect treat for children and adults alike.
Ingredients:
Sausages:
- 700g minced pork, chicken or turkey
- 25-30g ginger & leek sausage seasoning
- 100-200g rusk* (alter to preference)
- 150ml cold water
- Sausage casings – natural (hog/sheep) or collagen
Sauce:
- 3tsp hoisin sauce
- 1tbsp clear honey
- 1tsp wholegrain mustard
- 1tbsp sesame seeds
- Add meat, seasoning and rusk to a bowl and mix thoroughly - if using a complete sausage mix (which already contains rusk) rather than separate seasoning and rusk, add 100g.
- Add chilled water and ensure all ingredients are combined.
- Cover and chill for at least one hour or overnight to allow the spices to infuse the meat.
- If using natural casings – soak the casing for around 30 minutes, use a funnel to remove excess salt.
- If using collagen casings – there is no need to soak the casings, use straight from pack.
- Place the casing on the outside of the tube and begin to pass the meat through your sausage stuffer, tie a knot at the end of the casing to stop the meat passing straight through and continue to pass the meat mixture through the casing.
- Once the meat is finished, tie a knot at the other end and begin linking your sausages, twisting in opposite directions, make these full sized sausages or bitesize.
- Use a little vegetable oil on your hands to work the sausage with ease and create a professional sheen.
- Heat an oven to 190°C/170°C fan/gas 5, mix together the ingredients for the sauce and cover sausages, tossing well to ensure they are evenly coated.
- Line a baking tray with foil and lay the sausages evenly, brush remaining sauce on the sausages and bake for 20-25 minutes or until cooked through and golden.
- Eat right away or pack in a container/wrap in foil – these can be eaten cold.
*The rusk can be left out if you
wish – making it less calories and values, in this case you would use the
seasoning and skip the adding rusk step.
