Here’s a recipe for delicious pink sausage pancakes that anyone can easily follow.
Ingredients
- 500g Old-fashioned or Pink Sausage
- 3 Eggs
- 1/4 Scallion (approx. 30g)
- Pinch of Salt (approx. 1/4 tsp)
- Pinch of Black Pepper
- Ketchup, as needed
- Pinch of Parsley Flakes (for garnish)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Here are the ingredients you’ll need to make the nostalgic pink sausage pancakes. This recipe is designed to serve approximately 4 people.
Step 2
Now, shall we make the pink sausage pancakes, a dish filled with the flavor of old-fashioned sausage? First, prepare 500g of pink sausage.
Step 3
Carefully peel the packaging from the 500g of pink sausage.
Step 4
Slice the unwrapped pink sausage into round pieces, about 0.5cm thick. If sliced too thinly, the texture might not be as satisfying when cooked. Slicing them a bit thicker will enhance the chewiness.
Step 5
Prepare about 1/4 of a scallion (approximately 30g). If using frozen scallions, thaw them at room temperature and then chop them finely.
Step 6
Adding green scallions to the pink sausage pancakes not only makes them visually appealing but also enhances the flavor. Prepare about a handful of the chopped scallions.
Step 7
Next, let’s make the delicious egg batter that will coat the pink sausage. Crack 3 eggs into a mixing bowl.
Step 8
Add a pinch of salt (about 1/4 tsp) to the eggs for a subtle seasoning.
Step 9
Sprinkle a little black pepper to add a touch of flavor.
Step 10
Add the handful of chopped scallions you prepared earlier to the egg mixture.
Step 11
Using a whisk, beat the eggs thoroughly until smooth and well combined. This completes the egg batter for coating the pink sausage!
Step 12
Dip the thickly sliced pink sausage pieces into the egg mixture infused with green scallions.
Step 13
Gently turn the sausage pieces to ensure they are evenly coated with the egg batter on all sides.
Step 14
Place a flat frying pan over medium heat on your stovetop. Once the pan is heated sufficiently, add cooking oil to generously coat the entire surface.
Step 15
Arrange the egg-coated pink sausage pieces neatly in the heated pan. Be aware that the sausage can be slippery, making it hard for the scallions to stick! A tip is to first place the sausage in the pan, then use a spoon to gently place the chopped scallions on top of the sausage as it cooks, helping them adhere.
Step 16
Pan-fry the pink sausage until it’s golden brown on both sides. Repeat this process with the remaining sausage pieces.
Step 17
If there’s any leftover egg batter, pour it into the pan and fry it as a simple egg pancake to serve alongside the sausage.
Step 18
Prepare a serving dish that will nicely present the pink sausage pancakes.
Step 19
Place the large, round egg pancake you made earlier onto the serving dish first. Its size often fits perfectly and adds to the presentation and heartiness.
Step 20
Artfully arrange the golden-brown pink sausage pancakes in a circular pattern around the central egg pancake. Your colorful and delicious pink sausage pancakes are now complete! (Colors: green, yellow, pink)
Step 21
These finished pink sausage pancakes are delicious on their own, but dipping them into ketchup sprinkled with parsley flakes elevates the experience to something truly special. The combination with sweet and tangy ketchup is simply unbeatable!
Step 22
Dipping a piece of the nostalgic pink sausage pancake into tangy ketchup will surely bring a smile to your face. While mayonnaise is also a good pairing, personally, I find the sourness of ketchup to be the perfect complement to pink sausage pancakes!
