ANDOUILLE SAUSAGE CREOLE
Steps:
- Combine oil and flour in a Dutch oven; cook over medium heat, stirring, until mixture is golden colored about 10 to 15 minutes. Add onion, garlic, green pepper, celery and green onions. Cook, stirring often, 10 minutes or more until vegetables are tender.
- Stir in tomatoes, tomato sauce, tomato paste, red pepper flakes, seasoning salt, bay leaves, 1 cup of water, hot sauce, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce and sausage. Bring to a boil, lower the heat and cover. Simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove the bay leaves. Garnish with parsley and serve over grits, if desired.
SAVORY CORN FRITTERS
These corn fritters use fresh, whole kernels, mixed with spices, scallions and a simple batter. Corn fritters come in many types, from the cornmeal-based, deep-fried hush puppies, to the more patty-shaped, pan-fried fritters. Pan-seared in hot oil until crisp, these patty-like fritters contain Cheddar, which adds creaminess while still allowing the crunchy corn kernels to provide a pop of sweet flavor and texture with each bite. Fritters make an excellent side for a cookout, as they stand up to smoky barbecue flavors and can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature. Leftovers make an excellent breakfast, with a dollop of sour cream or plain yogurt on top.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, garlic powder, black pepper and ground cayenne. Whisk in the flour and baking powder until just combined. Stir in the corn, scallions and Cheddar.
- Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-low and add enough oil to generously coat the bottom of the skillet.
- Once the oil is shimmering hot, add a heaping tablespoon of the batter to the skillet. Use the back of the spoon to flatten it into a round patty. Repeat to fry 3 to 4 fritters at once. Fry on each side until golden, about 2 minutes, then cook for an additional 2 minutes. Add more oil as needed.
- Remove from the skillet and transfer to a paper towel-lined baking sheet. Repeat until all fritters are fried. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Bake stuffing in dish alongside turkey until heated through, about 30 minutes. Uncover stuffing. Bake until top is just crisp and golden, about 15 minutes.

SAUSAGE AND CORN FRITTERS
This is a variation on a corn fritter recipe to add sausage. As with my other recipes, a small amount of oil is used to keep the calorie count down.

Steps:
- Start boiling ear of corn. Alternately, frozen corn can be used instead.
- Start heating 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a small cooking pot on MEDIUM heat. NOTES: 1) other kinds of oil can be used instead if desired; 2) a small pot will allow less oil to be used: the fritters need to be at least partly immersed in the oil.
- Pan fry sausage and set aside.
- Blend cornflour, baking powder, and 1/2 tablespoon of salt in a mixing bowl.
- Beat egg separately, then combine with ingredients in bowl.
- Add corn kernels and sausage to the mixture and blend thoroughly.
- Carefully use a spoon to place spoonfuls of the mixture into the oil. Patty-shaped fritters work best in a shallow pan, but you can make them any size or shape. Don't drop the batter into the oil.
- The fritters cook very quickly in a shallow pot because they're closer to the heat. Watch the underside of the fritter for browning. The fritter can brown in as little as 30 seconds, depending on how hot the pot is.
- Carefully flip the fritter over with a fork. Remove from heat when the fritter is browned.
- Placed finished fritters on a paper towel to remove excess grease.
- Sprinkle remaining salt on the fritters while still hot.
- Use a blend of sweet and sour sauce and hot sauce for dipping if desired.

ANDOUILLE SAUSAGE AND CORN CHOWDER
This is a slightly spicy, smoky, hearty corn chowder. The recipe was given to me by a dear friend many years ago and the original source is unknown. I have adapted it to suit my family's tastes. If you prefer a thicker chowder, you can stir in a can of creamed corn. Serve this with cornbread or a crusty French loaf for a lovely meal, enjoy!

- Pour chicken broth into the pot; bring the mixture to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook at a simmer, stirring occasionally, about 30 minutes.

Steps:
- Melt 1 tablespoon butter in heavy large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add sausage and sauté until brown, about 3 minutes. Add 3 3/4 cups broth and bring to boil. Gradually whisk in grits.

PASTA WITH ANDOUILLE SAUSAGE, BEANS AND GREENS
Highly seasoned Andouille sausage makes this pasta extra-zippy, while white beans and collard greens give it a rustic flair. They are not ingredients typically used in pasta, but this dish may become part of your regular rotation once you try it. This one-dish dinner is perfect for cold, cozy nights when you want something hearty to stick to your bones, but it will satisfy any time. Swirling in lemon juice and olive oil just before serving adds freshness and ties all of the flavors together.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook until al dente according to the package's instructions.

- Add collard greens and toss to wilt, 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the thyme, cannellini beans and tomatoes and toss to warm through. Season again with salt and pepper to taste.

Tips:
- Choosing the right andouille sausage is vital for the success of this recipe. Look for a brand that is made with high-quality pork and has a good balance of spice.
- If you can't find fresh corn, you can use frozen or canned corn, but fresh corn will give you the best flavor.
- Be sure to chop the corn kernels finely so that they will cook evenly.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the fritters tough.
- Heat the oil to the correct temperature before frying the fritters. If the oil is too hot, the fritters will brown too quickly and won't cook evenly. If the oil is not hot enough, the fritters will absorb too much oil.
- Be careful when frying the fritters. They can splatter hot oil, so it's important to wear an apron and safety goggles.
- Serve the fritters hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
Conclusion:
Andouille sausage corn fritters are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They're perfect for parties or potlucks, and they're also a great way to use up leftover andouille sausage.
