Veggie Sausage Popovers Food

SAUSAGE POPOVERS

Steps:

• Grease bottom of an 8 inch baking pan.
• Heat oven to 400 degrees.
• Beat together the eggs, milk, oil, four and salt until smooth.
• Pour batter into the greased pan and top with meat (and anyother leftovers you would like to use) Bake 35 minutes.
• We serve this with maple syrup or molasses when we use the breakfast sausage, but I imagine that mustard, ketchup or other condiments would be more appropriate for different types of"toppings".

BREAKFAST POPOVERS WITH ITALIAN SAUSAGE

Steps:

• Place an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F. Butter the muffin cups.
• Heat the oil over medium heat in a medium nonstick skillet. Add the sausage and break it into 1/4-to-1/2-inch pieces using a wooden spoon. Cook until brown and cooked through, about 6 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until aromatic, about 30 seconds. Spoon about 1 1/2 tablespoons sausage into each muffin cup. Sprinkle the cheese on top of the sausage.
• Blend the eggs in a blender until frothy, about 15 seconds. Add the milk, flour, green onions, basil, salt and pepper. Blend until just incorporated. Pour the batter into the muffin cups, filling each cup to just below the rim. Bake, without opening the oven door, until puffed and golden, about 35 minutes.
• Place the popovers on a platter and drizzle with maple syrup.

TOMATO & SAUSAGE POPOVERS

Steps:

• Step 1 Preheat the oven to 425° F. Grease a mini muffin tin with butter or cooking spray. Step 2 On medium heat, add olive oil, sausage, tomatoes, and herbs to a pan. Cook until the sausage has browned and blended with the tomatoes, about 5 to 7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, then let cool. Step 3 Place milk in a bowl and microwave for about 40 seconds to warm it up. Whisk in the eggs, butter, flour, and salt until smooth. Heat up the empty muffin tin in the oven for 2 to 3 minutes. Then working quickly, add the batter to fill each cup ¾ of the way. Add a spoonful of the sausage mixture to each cup, then top with more batter until the cup is full, but not overflowing. Sprinkle cheese on each. Step 4 Bake in the oven for 10 to 15 minutes, or until they are golden brown and puffed up over the sides. Serve immediately. Recipe created by Abigail Harris Shea

TRADITIONAL BRITISH TOAD-IN-THE-HOLE AND MINI TOADS TOO!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 220°C or 450°F.
• Pour the dripping or vegetable oil into a large metal roasting tin. Place the tin in the preheated oven whilst you make the batter to heat the oil/dripping up.When the fat is hot, add the sausages and turn them over to coat them.Cook for about 10 minutes.
• Make the Yorkshire pudding batter - Mix flour, salt & pepper together in a large roomy mixing bowl. Make a hollow in the centre & add the egg, mixing it into the flour with a wooden spoon.Add the milk gradually until all the flour and egg is worked in and smooth. Add any remaining milk and beat well with a balloon whisk or hand held beater.
• Take the roasting tin with the sausages out from the oven and very QUICKLY pour the batter over the partly cooked sausages. Swirl around to make sure it covers everywhere.
• Put them back into the oven cook for a further 30 minutes or until the batter has puffed up and the sausages are sizzling and brown!
• Cut into 4 quarters and serve straight away with hot onion gravy & mashed potatoes!
• You can also use pork or lamb chops instead of sausages - making sure they are not too thick. I often use pork chops with quartered apple and stuffing balls which is really lovely!
• MINI TOADS:.
• Twist a sausage into half and carefully cut through the skin to make 2 sausages - do this once more to each half making a total of 4 small sausages out of one big sausage. (Or use party cocktail sausages - mini frankfurters) carry on until you have made 12 mini sausages. Follow the instructions above, but only cook the mini sausages for about 5 minutes first and then another 15 minutes with the batter. Serve with tomato ketchup or home made tomato sauce/relish and mugs of soup for a great Winter supper!
