Ingredients
- 2 sausages
- 1 slice white bread
- to taste breadcrumbs
- 1 egg
- 1 pinch paprika (to taste)
- parsley
- 1 sprig rosemary (or thyme)
- 1 glass light beer
- extra virgin olive oil
- salt
Tools
- Pan
- Bowl
- Chopper
Preparation
Peel the sausages and crumble them into a bowl.
Using a small chopper, finely chop the bread with a sprig of parsley.
Add the chopped mixture to the sausage, also add the beaten egg, a pinch of paprika, and a little salt.
Mix everything together, adding 2-3 tablespoons of breadcrumbs, depending on the consistency of the mixture (1).
With the palms of your hands, form meatballs and coat them with a little breadcrumbs (2).
I made them very small (I got 25), but if you prefer, you can make them larger and flatten them slightly.
Heat a pan with a drizzle of oil and a sprig of rosemary, add the meatballs and brown them for a couple of minutes (3).
Pour in the beer and finish cooking over medium heat. If the sauce dries out too much, add a little hot water or broth.
The beer sausage meatballs are ready, serve them hot, drizzled with the cooking sauce… enjoy your meal!
Tips and Notes
You can use sausages from your area, adjust the salt or spices based on their seasoning.
You can add half a tablespoon of grated parmesan to the mixture.
If you don’t like beer, you can replace it with white wine.
