Ainslie & Co.... On Saturday in the Daily Telegraph magazine there was a review of a new book by Madhur Jaffrey "Curry Easy". Now this arrival has solved my Christmas gift problem for my wife, Elona, as she has always successfully made up meals from the earlier books...... The item that took my notice though was the Sausage Patties, a recipe for which Ms. Jaffrey obtained from an Anglo-Indian friend in Calcutta. So to help you out with a snack lunch, or what have you, here is the list of ingredients...for 8 patties. 450g Minced Pork, a bit fatty. 3 tbsp Shallots or Red Onions, peeled and finely chopped. 100g fresh Corriander, chopped. 1/2 to 3/4 tsp Cayenne Pepper. 1 tsp Garam Marsala (Preferably home made but shop bought will do she says!). 2 tsp Olive or Rapeseed oil. Mix well together and wrap in cling film and refridgerate over night- or for a couple of hours if need sooner. Put the patties into the frying pan with the oil and make sure that they are cooked through...Enjoy. I will be trying this one out later in the week, we are lucky to be able to get good local pork and can mince it to our requirement. The mixture will, of course, also make up into sausages......2 for the price of one..{;}}> Good Cooking Peter > Thanks for the walk down memory lane - > I remember Mum cooking those before we went off on a picnic.
