Ingredients
- Old-fashioned sausage (pink sausage) 15-20cm (1 piece)
- Eggs 2
- Flour for frying 1 Tbsp
- Salt 1g (about a pinch)
- Pepper to taste
- Cooking oil (generous amount)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare the old-fashioned sausage (pink sausage) by slicing it into bite-sized pieces. Slicing them into rounds about 1cm thick is ideal for cooking evenly.
Step 2
In a bowl, crack the 2 eggs. Add 1g of salt and a pinch of pepper. Whisk the eggs thoroughly until smooth to create the egg wash. Adding a little salt helps season the batter for a tastier fritter.
Step 3
Spread 1 Tbsp of flour for frying onto a wide plate. Coat each slice of sausage evenly on both sides with the flour. A thin layer of flour helps the egg wash adhere better and contributes to a crispier texture. Next, dip the flour-coated sausage slices into the prepared egg wash, ensuring they are fully coated.
Step 4
Heat a frying pan over medium heat and add a generous amount of cooking oil. Carefully place the egg-washed sausage slices in the hot oil. Pan-fry them until golden brown on both sides, for about 2-3 minutes per side. Avoid using high heat, as this can burn the outside while leaving the inside undercooked. Medium heat ensures even cooking.
Step 5
Once both sides are beautifully golden brown and appetizing, they are ready! Enjoy them as a hearty side dish with a warm bowl of rice, or as a simple snack with a cold beer. Taste the nostalgia with these delicious old-fashioned sausage fritters!
