Vegetarian Sausage Satay

September 1, 2014 by manjirichitnis 14 Comments

Wait a bit? Did you read that right? Absolutely yes! Vegetarian Sausages are exactly what I have used in this fab recipe sent by my sister who turned vegetarian a few years ago. She doesn’t even consume eggs.  I am far from becoming a vegetarian but love to experiment with lighter options and so was delighted to receive some samples from Secret Sausages which I had sampled first  at FBC 2014 a few months ago and  I recollect really liking the flavours.

I was sent 3 different flavours to experiment with:

  • Rosemary & Garlic – Garlic, Green Beans, Mixed Peppers and Rosemary
  • Honey Bee – Sweet Corn, carrots, peas and honey
  • Chilli and Coriander – Chillies, coriander, onion, sweet corn and carrots

This recipe can be used with the sausages chopped and served as a starter or else as a main with sides like potato or sweet potato mash and green peas.

Serves: 2 as a main with a side of mash and peas

Ingredients  – Enough for 2 packets with 6 sausages each

  • groundnut powder – 5 heaped tbsp
  • Garlic purée
  • Green Chillies – 3
  • A small bunch of fresh coriander or one large packet from the supermarket
  • Oil 3 tbsp
  • Juice of one lemon
  • Salt to taste
  • Red onions – 2 large
  • Tomato – 1 medium-sized

Method 

  • In a dry sauce on a low flame heat 1 tbsp oil and add the chopped green chillies and garlic purée.
  • Then add the groundnuts powder and roast this mixture for about 2 minutes, stirring continuously ensuring it does not burn.
  • Turn off the flame and add freshly, finely chopped coriander leaves, salt, sugar and lemon juice.

  • Allow this mixture to cool down and then coat the sausage with skin with the mixture thoroughly.

  • Refrigerate the marinated sausages for an hour.
  • Before you remove the marinated sausages from the refrigerator make the onion and tomato mixture.
  • Chop the onion into long thin strips.
  • Heat 2 heaped tbsp oil in the same saucepan and sauté till they caramelise.
  • Add the chopped tomato and sauté for another minute.
  • Then remove the marinated sausages from the refrigerator and saute on a griddle pan with very little oil sprinkled onto it.

  • Mix the sausages in the onion-tomato mixture.
  • Serve with mashed potatoes and green peas as sides.

      Hey Shaheen, you can use boiled sweet potato or potato with boiled and mixed vegetables to make the sausages and flavour it with herbs, arrowroot powder to hold it together should work! huum I need to do another post with this recipe I guess now! Thanks for stopping by!

      Thanks, GG, they were so delicious in themselves, I like spicy food but didn’t want to overpower the natural flavours, I think I managed that here. xx
