Welsh Glamorgan Sausages With Onion Chutney Cheese Fritters Recipes

WELSH GLAMORGAN SAUSAGES WITH ONION CHUTNEY (CHEESE FRITTERS)

Steps:

• FOR THE CHUTNEY: In a large saucepan, melt the butter with the olive oil over low heat. Add the sugar and stir to dissolve completely. Add the onions all at once and stir to coat with the butter and sugar mixture. Add the garlic, ginger, thyme, cumin, coriander and cloves, mix together well and cook until onions are quite soft, 15-20 minutes. Add the vinegars, red pepper jelly and wine and work into the onion mixture. Continue to cook at a simmer for another 20 minutes or so, until mixture is thickened. Season with salt and pepper. Let mixture cool before using.
• FOR THE SAUSAGES: In a mixing bowl combine the cheese, onions, parsley, thyme, dry mustard and salt and pepper. Mix together well then add the fresh breadcrumbs and egg yolks. Blend together, adding a little milk, if necessary, if mixture is too dry.
• Beat egg whites until light and frothy. Form the cheese mixture into sausage shapes. Dip each in flour, shaking off the excess, then into the beaten egg whites and finally the breadcrumbs. Repeat until all the cheese mixture has been shaped. Heat enough oil to shallow fry the sausages in a large skillet placed over medium high heat. Fry the sausages for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until crisp and golden brown on all sides. Serve with the onion chutney. Serves 4. Serve with Felinfoel Brewery's double Dragon Ale.

Steps:

• Pour 1 tablespoon oil into a deep pan and heat over medium heat. Add leeks and saute until tender and fragrant, about 5 minutes. Add thyme and garlic; saute for another 30 seconds. Transfer to a mixing bowl and place in the refrigerator until cooled to room temperature, 20 to 30 minutes.

• Roll a handful of the leek mixture into the shape of a sausage. Roll in the flour, coat in the egg wash, then dredge it in the bread crumbs. Repeat to form remaining "sausage" links.
• Heat 1/2 to 3/4 inch of oil in the same pan over medium-high heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
