Jazzing up sausgaes?

[alicia]

OK, I have a boring packet of sausages in the freezer and I am all out of inspiration. Does anyone have any tasty ideas for things I can make out of my boring sausages and the regular groceries in the fridge and pantry?

You could do Curried sausages, or sausages with onion gravy/bacon gravy/tomato and onion gravy? Or you could squeeze all the meat out, mince it together again, make patties and roll in crumbs for crumbed rissoles?

I was going to suggest curried sausages too.

I'm thinking about throwing some cooked sausages in my soup tonight, to make it a bit more hearty (and meaty). I also sometimes make a salad with it, some pasta, baby spinach, cooked sausage and other bits and pieces...maybe cheese and sweet chilli sauce and tomato and cooked garlicy mushrooms..

I remember mum used to boil the sausages and mix them with a jar of sweet and sour sauce and then serve it with pasta, I used to love that as a kid.

If you pr!ck them and put them in a baking dish with a bottle of red wine, garlic and some herbs leave them over night and then cook them as you would they come out BEAUTIFULLY serve them with a creamy mash and some onion gravy DELISH!

375 grams pasta - cook it
cook sausages

fry up some onion, capsicum, zuchini - all thinly sliced until tender. Chuck in mushies if you have them.
Throw in basil, and a jar of pasta sauce and heat it all through, simmer about 5 mins.

Mix pasta and the mix in a big bowl, add handful or two of grated cheese, put in a baking dish in moderate oven 25 mins. O and throw a handful of grated cheese over the top too.

Yummm - Im having that for T tommorow night, what a great way to make a cheap meal posh

I found that after my onions are cooked, if I add the curry powder then, and cook it, so to speak, its brings out the flavour of the c/s . I also use stock instead of water

[alicia]

Mmmmmm Rouge that sounds easy and yum!

Lulu, I love a sausage pasta bake but my MIL will be here tomorrow night and she doesn't so that is why I am after some new inspirations.

Oh no I am going to be the odd one out here, but I don't really like curried sausages

[Salad]

I sometimes make this and all of the stuff should be in your pantry or fridge hopefully :
Easy sausage Pie

2 tsp oil
1 onion finely chopped or grated
6 thin sausages
1 carrot grated
2 zucchini grated
1 cup grated tasty cheese
1/2 cup plain flour
1 1/2 cups milk
3 eggs

Preheat over to 160 degrees, grease a 4cm deep 17.5cm x 24.5cm baking dish

Heat oil in a frypan over medium heat, add onion, cook stirring often until soft, remove to a bowl and add sausages. cook sausages

Once cooked - thinly slice the sausages.

Arrange sausages, onion, carrot zucchini and cheese over base of dish

Whisk flour and milk in a bowl until smooth, add eggs season with salt and pepper whisk to combine.

Pour over sausage mix, bake for 50-60 minutes or until set.

Hope this helps.

I often make a stroganoff with mine as they are cheaper & we always have them in the freezer. I just fry up the sausages ( or grill), then add in fresh mushrooms & cook with some bbq sauce, worcestershire sauce & mixed herbs for flavour. Then add a tin of tomoato soup, heat up & stir in as much sour cream as you like. We then serve it with some nice pasta....yum.
Otherwise sweet & sour sausages with creamy mash or steamed rice.

[Ca Plane Pour Moi]

You can't go wrong with bangers and mash!

This is a favourite here:
Make a tomato sauce with one tin of chopped tomatoes, one crushed clove of garlic and some thyme. Mix in four pre-cooked sausages and some dry-fried courgette strips - just peel the courgette over and over again until you get to the seeds to get loads of thin strips.

I usually add some penne pasta to this, but it would work well on a bed of mash potato. It's really simple but very tasty. You can serve with additional veggies or salad.

yep i was going to suggest curried sausages too
Curried Sausages recipe - Best Recipes
i'd substitute apple and veggies for whatever veggies you have in the fridge - potato, mushrooms, broc, spinach, carrots...anything. always yummy the next day too.

TOss them through cous cous with baked pumkin & cherry tomatoes, green peas, onion and roasted garlic, olive oil and lemon juice and spinach. We usually do the pumlkin, garlic and toms together in the oven with a generous amount of olive oil in a pyrex oblong dish. As the toms collapse they release juice this mixes with the flavours from the other veg in the olive oil and is beautiful stirred though with the couscous.

Thanks for all the ideas ladies

I ended up making a sausage risotto with the left over vegies and a tin of tomatoes, it worked really well. I will be saving some of these ideas though - DH loves the sound of sausages soaked in wine
