Country-Style Sausage with Fried Apples

Ingredients:


2-lb. boneless pork shoulder, finely chopped
2 tbsp. fresh sage leaves, chopped
1 tbsp. salt
1 tsp. freshly grated nutmeg
1⁄2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
2 pinches ground cayenne
3 tart apples
1 tbsp. sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon

Preparation:


Put pork, sage, salt, nutmeg, pepper, and cayenne into a large bowl; gently mix together with your hands. Form mixture into 16 patties.

Fry patties in batches in a large skillet over medium heat until well browned, 3–4 minutes per side; transfer to a plate as done. Meanwhile, peel and core apples, then cut into 6 wedges each.

Cook apples in same skillet, turning as they brown, until just soft, 8–12 minutes. Sprinkle sugar and cinnamon over apples and cook, shaking skillet, until apples are glazed, about 5 minutes. Return sausage to skillet to warm through. Garnish with fresh sage. Serves 4 to 6.
