Ingredients
Before diving into the cooking process, gather the following ingredients:
– 1 pound of ground pork
– 1/2 cup of breadcrumbs
– 1/4 cup of diced onions
– 2 tablespoons of diced bell peppers
– 1 tablespoon of garlic powder
– 1 tablespoon of onion powder
– 1 teaspoon of paprika
– 1 teaspoon of chili powder
– 1 teaspoon of salt
– 1 teaspoon of black pepper
– 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper (optional)
– 1/4 cup of vegetable oil
– 1/4 cup of water
Preparation
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, breadcrumbs, diced onions, bell peppers, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, chili powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper (if using). Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly distributed.
2. Shape the mixture into small, round sausages. You can use a spoon or your hands to form the sausages. Place them on a plate or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
3. In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the sausages to the skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they are browned and cooked through.
4. While the sausages are cooking, in a separate saucepan, combine the water and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and add the cooked sausages to the saucepan. Let them simmer for an additional 5 minutes to absorb the flavors of the water.
