Turkey Sausage Patties

Ingredients

  • Fennel Seeds
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 1/2 tsp Sage
  • 1 tsp Garlic powder
  • 1 tsp Dried Thyme
  • 1/2 tsp Dried Rosemary
  • 1/4 tsp marjoram
  • 1 pinch Cloves
  • 2 lb dark meat ground turkey
  • 2 tsp Salt
  • 2 tbsp Maple Syrup
  • 3 tbsp Olive Oil

Instructions

  1. 1

    Toast the fennel seeds in a pan over medium low heat until fragrant. Add to a mortar and pestle or spice grinder and grind to a powder. Add the turkey to a mixing bowl along with the ground fennel seeds, pepper, sage, garlic powder, thyme, rosemary, marjoram, cloves, salt, maple syrup, and olive oil. Mix until well-incorporated, and chill overnight or for at least 2 hours.

  2. 2

    Using wet hands (to prevent sticking), form into 16 patties and fry in a lightly oiled pan over medium high heat until browned and crispy.

  3. 3

    To store the sausage for later use, form into patties and place raw patties between squares of parchment paper. Transfer to an airtight container or freezer bag and transfer to the freezer. Cook patties directly from frozen, no need to thaw!

Ago's Notes

  • Adjust salt to taste based on your canned goods.

Let the fragrant blend of herbs and spices guide you-trust the process, and savor each bite as a celebration of simple, thoughtful cooking.
