A product like sausage is practically not used in world-class haute cuisine. However, it is precisely them that modern housewives love so much, lacking time for cooking.
When the question arises of what can be prepared from sausages, a hot dog is immediately remembered. This dish of American catering came to us in the eighties of the last century along with foreign films. However, real gourmets will not only not eat a hot dog, but also recommend other options for this “miracle” of American cooking.
In fact, dishes with sausages can be found in the menu of some institutions. These include various hodgepodge, omelettes or salads. It should be noted that only high-quality products with a high meat content are used for cooking. In some elite restaurants, if the recipe involves the use of sausages, they are prepared on their own, without resorting to store goods. This is an indicator of the high skill of the cooks and their attitude to their dishes.
Some gourmets say that you can’t just cook anything refined or piquant from this product. However, some sausage dishes can seriously surprise such skeptics.
Spaghetti with sausage sauce
For cooking you will need:
- sausages - 0.5 kg;
- spaghetti - 1 kg;
- tomatoes - 2 pcs.;
- onion - 1 pc.;
- tomato paste;
- salt;
- pepper.
First you need to boil a little sausages. Then they are taken out of the water and cut into small rings. That is why you should choose only high-quality products, otherwise they will simply boil or decompose during further processing. After that, we begin to prepare the gravy, which will be used for the sausage dish.
To do this, cut the onion into small half rings, and peel the tomatoes from the peel and cut into large cubes. To make it easier to peel the tomato, it must be immersed in boiling water for a few seconds, which remains from the sausages. Then pour a little vegetable oil into the pan and put onions on it, which we fry until transparent.
So that dishes from sausages do not turn into meat porridge, put tomatoes in the pan, which are slightly fried, and only then - round sausages. To give a richer flavor, tomato paste and spices are added to the dressing.
Next, you need to boil the spaghetti. You can also use water from sausages, but only if there is no doubt about their quality. It is necessary to cook them so that literally a few seconds remain before the state of readiness. Later they "reach" themselves due to the internal temperature.
After that, we discard the spaghetti in a colander and add the sauce to them. These sausage dishes can be called pasta, although Italian chefs are not enthusiastic about such a comparison. In fact, such pasta with gravy has a very good appearance and amazing taste. They are perfect for dinner, and their preparation will take no more than 20 minutes. It is also recommended to sprinkle a hot dish with a small amount of grated cheese and herbs, but this is already a matter of taste.
