Sausage Puffs With Onion Gravy, One of several budget-savvy sizzling sausages recipes which appeared in this week’s ‘New Idea’ I have also posted Recipe #352629, Recipe #352627, Recipe #352626 and Recipe #352632 this recipe, food editor Barbara Nortwood has costed at $A1 25 per serve Chipolatas are small pork sausages that are Italian in origin They are enjoyed throughout Europe with special popularity in the UK as a breakfast sausage Most US residents know chipolatas as Italian sausages , The title of this recipe threw me off a little, as in my part of the world it’s known as Toad in the Hole, and is a classic in many households My clan in particular are extraordinarily fond of this dish, and I could see the trepidation in my DH’s face when he saw what I was up to I made the batter ahead of time, as I like to let it rest in the fridge for as long as possible before using, as I find it produces much better results (up to 24 hours ahead if poss!) used my usual 4 hole yorkshire pudding tray, and after heating the tray and oil in the oven I placed it over a high gas flame to get it to smoke a little, before tossing the chipolatas into their holes and turning them to quickly brown the outsides, then adding the chilled batter mixture, and putting into the oven They rose beautifully (much to DH’s relief!), and the children thought it was fun to have their own individual Toads in their Holes The gravy was the real star of the show though The sugar makes all the difference, and it was totally delicious The entire meal was thoroughly enjoyed by everybody Thanks BlueMoon, another winner from you! Made for 1-2-3 Hit Wonders , My DH and I disagreed over 4 1/2 stars or 5 for this recipe, since I do the typing, I’m giving it 5 I followed the directions, although used only 2/3 of the recipe (since there are only two of us, and it’s hard to halve three eggs), and it was great I’ve never had anything like it before, and will be experimenting with other things I like the mild italian sausages and will try it with them, as oppsed to the breakfast sausages There are all kinds of possibilities here Thanks, Bluemoon, it was great Prepared for Newest Zaar Tag game
