SAUSAGES WITH APPLES AND ONIONS



Sausages With Apples and Onions image

There are lots of kinds of wurst, or sausage: bratwurst, bockwurst, knackwurst, weisswurst (similar to the French boudin blanc). Bratwurst is popular the United States, and there are some new high-quality packaged supermarket brands now available, or look for other types from a butcher shop. But let's face it: Nearly any kind of sausage will taste great paired with caramelized onions and apples fried in butter.

Time 40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 large yellow onions, cut in 1/4-inch half-moons (about 4 cups)
Salt and pepper
1 bay leaf
2 cloves
3 allspice berries
1/2 teaspoon caraway seeds
1 thyme sprig
4 large tart apples, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch slices (about 4 cups)
8 bratwurst or other sausages, about 3 to 4 ounces each
Parsley sprigs, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Put 2 tablespoons butter in a large cast-iron skillet or wide, heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Add onions, season generously with salt and pepper and stir to coat with butter. Add bay leaf, cloves, allspice, caraway and thyme. Cook, stirring frequently, until soft and nicely browned, about 10 minutes. Reduce heat as necessary to keep onions from browning too quickly.
  • Remove onions from pan and arrange on a platter. Put 2 more tablespoons butter in pan, and add apples. Raise heat to medium-high and brown apples on both sides, using a spatula to turn them, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove apples and arrange them on top of onions. Keep platter warm in a low oven.
  • Keep stovetop heat at medium and place sausages in pan in one layer. Prick each sausage in several places with the tip of a sharp paring knife or toothpick.
  • Let sausages brown slowly on one side (check their progress by turning them over with a fork or tongs) for 6 to 8 minutes. Lower the temperature if they're browning too quickly.
  • Turn sausages over, and add 1/2 cup water to the pan. Let water evaporate completely, then continue to let sausages brown slowly for about 5 more minutes. (Cooking sausages at too high a temperature will cause them to burst; err on the cooler side.)
  • To serve, place cooked sausages in the center of the onion-apple mixture on platter. Garnish with parsley, if desired.

Place the tomato halves in a grill pan, and cook until each side is seared, roughly 3 minutes per side. Remove the tomato halves from the pan and set aside.

Grilled Sausage Sandwiches with Caramelized Onions and Gruyère Cheese image

Categories     Sandwich     Onion     Sausage     Winter     Swiss Cheese     Bon Appétit

Yield Makes 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 pounds onions, thinly sliced
1 1/2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon (packed) dark brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon caraway seeds
3 fully cooked smoked sausages (such as white bratwurst or chicken-apple)
4 large slices rye or pumpernickel bread
4 teaspoons Dijon mustard
4 ounces Gruyère or Emmenthal cheese, thinly sliced
3 tablespoons butter, room temperature

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions and sauté until slightly softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in vinegar, sugar and caraway seeds. Reduce heat to medium-low and sauté until onions are deep brown and very tender, about 20 minutes longer. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (Can be prepared 2 hours ahead.

Tips:

1. Choosing the Right Sausages: Opt for high-quality sausages like Italian sausages, bratwursts, or breakfast sausages. Make sure they are fresh and have a good meat-to-fat ratio. 2. Perfect Caramelized Onions: Slice the onions thinly and cook them over medium heat with a little butter or olive oil. Stir occasionally to prevent burning and allow them to caramelize slowly until they turn golden brown. 3. Selecting Apples: Choose sweet and firm apples like Honeycrisp, Granny Smith, or Pink Lady. They hold their shape well during cooking and provide a nice contrast to the savory sausages. 4. Grill or Pan-Fry: You can cook the sausages and apples either on a grill or in a pan. If using a grill, preheat it to medium-high heat. If using a pan, heat a little oil over medium heat. 5. Timing is Key: Cook the sausages until they are cooked through, usually about 10-12 minutes. Add the apples and onions a few minutes later so they have time to soften but still retain their texture. 6. Deglaze the Pan: After removing the sausages, apples, and onions from the pan, add a splash of white wine or apple cider vinegar to deglaze the pan. This will dissolve any browned bits and create a flavorful sauce.

Conclusion:

Grilled sausages with caramelized onions and apples offer a delightful combination of flavors and textures. The savory sausages, sweet and tangy apples, and caramelized onions complement each other perfectly. Whether you choose to grill or pan-fry, this dish is a great choice for a casual meal or a special occasion. Serve it with your favorite sides like mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple green salad.
