Description

Making homemade sausage takes no longer than making patties.

Ingredients

Milk - 13 fl oz
Chicken fillet - 17.6 oz
Chicken Egg - 1 piece
Potato protein - 2 tablespoons
Garlic - 2 cloves
Salt - 2 teaspoons
Sugar - ½ teaspoon
Spices - to taste

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Cut the fillet into pieces. Place it in a food processor bowl and grind it, gradually adding all the ingredients in any order. It's better to add the milk in parts rather than all at once. Pre-crush or finely chop the garlic to ensure it gets minced. (For spices, I used black pepper, cardamom, nutmeg, and coriander.) The result should be a snow-white homogeneous mass. Grease the mugs with oil.

Step 2

To ensure everything goes well, place the mugs in cold or warm, but not hot water. I have used regular ceramic cylindrical mugs multiple times without any issues. If you're concerned, use metal mugs, enameled or aluminum. Fill the sausage mixture to about 4/5 of the mug's volume.

Step 3

Wrap each mug in plastic wrap. It’s important to wrap the top and bottom a couple of times so that the sausage doesn’t pop out, as it might try to escape :) Place the mugs with the sausage in a pot. Put a rack or a cloth napkin at the bottom so the mugs do not touch the bottom directly. Pour water to about halfway up the mugs. Place the pot over heat, cover with a lid. Bring the water to a boil and start timing for 35 minutes from that moment.

Step 4

After the time is up, turn off the heat and remove the mugs. Be careful! Once they cool down, shake the sausage out of the mugs. It’s better to do this while it’s still warm; I had a situation where the cooled sausage stuck to the bottom of the mug. For storage, I place the sausage in bags and put them in the refrigerator.
