SAUSAGE-STUFFED POTATO PANCAKES



Sausage-Stuffed Potato Pancakes image

They say that just because you can do something, doesn't always mean you should. One could argue that this recipe is one of those times, since we could just cook some sausage and serve it next to our potato pancakes-but I could, and did, stuff mine with sausage, and I very much enjoyed how they came out. Besides, if you're going to skip the sausage stuffing, this recipe is a reminder of just how easy potato pancakes are to make.

Time 35m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 ounces Italian sausage links, casings removed
1 ½ pounds russet potatoes, peeled
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 pinch cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 large egg, beaten
2 ½ tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons diced roasted red peppers
3 tablespoons sour cream, or to taste
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives, or to taste

Steps:

  • Divide sausage into 6 equal pieces, and press between plastic wrap to flatten into discs about 2 1/2 inches round and about 1/8 inch thick. Keep in the refrigerator until needed.
  • Grate potatoes and transfer into a large bowl of cold water. Stir the grated potatoes with your hand for a few seconds, and then drain the potatoes in a strainer. Using your hands and/or a towel, squeeze out as much water as possible.
  • Transfer the potatoes to a mixing bowl. Add salt, black pepper, cayenne, flour, and egg; mix thoroughly.
  • Heat oil in large nonstick pan over medium-high heat. For each pancake, place down about 3 tablespoons of the potato mixture. Reduce heat to medium; top each pancake with a sausage patty, pressing it down lightly into the surface. Top each sausage patty with another heaping tablespoon of potato mixture and spread over the top until the sausage is covered. Flatten down with a spoon or spatula.
  • Cook the first side until very well browned, about 5 minutes. Flip and cook the other side until browned, the sausage is no longer pink, and potatoes are tender, about 5 minutes more. Serve with diced roasted red peppers, sour cream, and fresh chives.

CREAMY ITALIAN SAUSAGE PASTA



Creamy Italian Sausage Pasta image

I got bored one night and started to throw together items that I had in my pantry. To my "Guinea Pigs" (family) delight, it was rather tasty.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 33m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (1 lb) package hot Italian sausage (5 Links)
1 (16 ounce) package rigatoni pasta or 1 (16 ounce) package penne pasta
1 (16 ounce) jar alfredo sauce (use your favorite kind)
1 (3 ounce) can sliced black olives
1/3 cup sun-dried tomato packed in oil
1 large garlic clove, minced
1 bunch Italian parsley, Chopped
freshly grated parmesan cheese
extra virgin olive oil or butter
salt

Steps:

  • Place Sausages in a pot with water and boil until thoroughly cooked through. Add minced garlic clove to pot for added flavoring.
  • Once cooked through, grill sausages to brown outer casing.
  • Meanwhile set a deep pot to boil with 5 quarts of water. Salt water, eyeball it, to season pasta, and add either Extra Virgin Olive Oil or Butter to make sure Pasta does not stick. (I prefer EVOO, again eyeball it).
  • In a large skillet, slowly heat Alfredo Sauce, Olives and Sun Dried Tomatoes.
  • Once Suasages are cooked to desired liking, slice in 1/4 in rounds and add to sauce.
  • Cook pasta to just under al dente. Drain and add to sauce and sausages. (Remember the pasta will continue cooking in sauce.).
  • Serve it up on a plate and sprinkle chopped Italian Parsley and Parmesean Cheese over the top. Serve with Garlic Bagel Chips or any other side of your choice.

Tips:

  • For a crispier pancake, use less milk and cook the pancakes over medium heat.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • Be sure to drain the sausage well before adding it to the pancakes. This will help prevent the pancakes from becoming greasy.
  • If you don't have Italian sausage, you can use ground beef, pork, or turkey.
  • Serve the pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, or sour cream.

Conclusion:

These Creamy Italian Sausage Topped Potato Pancakes are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. They are crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and the creamy Italian sausage topping is the perfect finishing touch.
