Provided by Sara Buenfeld

Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tbsp butter
2 tbsp plain flour
1 onion , finely chopped
1 green pepper , deseeded and finely chopped
2 celery sticks, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves , chopped
1 bay leaf
400g can plum tomato
1 chicken stock cube
dash of Tabasco sauce or hot pepper sauce
4 spring onions , finely sliced
handful coriander , roughly chopped
rice or mash , to serve
1 tbsp Cajun seasoning
500g pack turkey mince
1 tbsp vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Put the butter in a pan over a low heat. Stir in the flour and cook, stirring all the time to make a roux. Cook until the roux is hazelnut brown in colour - make sure that it doesn't burn. Tip in the vegetables, garlic and bay leaf, stir briefly, then pour in the tomatoes and 1½ cans of water. Crumble in the stock cube, add the hot sauce, then cover and cook for 15 mins, stirring occasionally, while you make the meatballs.
  • Work the spice and some seasoning into the turkey mince. Try not to over-handle or it will toughen. Shape into 20 meatballs.
  • Heat the oil in a large non-stick pan and quickly brown the meatballs in batches until they are nicely coloured on all sides.
  • Stir the sauce, then drop in the meatballs and cook on a low heat for 10 mins until the turkey is cooked through. Scatter over the spring onions and coriander, and serve with some rice or mash.

Categories     Meat

Time 40m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

1/2 lb andouille sausage
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion
2 garlic cloves
1 egg
2 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1/2 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese
3/4 lb ground beef
vegetable cooking spray
salt and pepper
1 1/3 cups mayonnaise
6 scallions
3 garlic cloves
1/4 cup lemon juice (fresh is best)
3 tablespoons mustard (grainy is best)
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
3 tablespoons horseradish sauce
2 tablespoons chili sauce

Steps:

  • Chop the onion and scallions. Mince the garlic. Remove casings from sausages (if necessary). Cut sausage into chunks and chop finely in a food processor.
  • In a small mixing bowl, prepare the remoulade sauce by mixing the mayonnaise, chopped scallions, 3 cloves chopped garlic, lemon juice, mustard, parsley, horseradish sauce, and chili sauce. Whisk well and season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Heat the oil in a small skillet and add the onions and 2 cloves chopped garlic. Sautee for about 3 minutes or until onion is translucent.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the egg, milk and Worcestershire sauce. Add the breadcrumbs and cheese and mix well.
  • Add the onion mixture, chopped sausage, and ground beef to the bowl, season with salt and pepper, and mix well.
  • Divide mixture into 8-12 sausage-shaped portions. Insert a metal skewer into each portion so that the tip of the skewer is almost at the top of the meat. Bamboo skewers may be used but should be soaked well in cold water first.
  • Prepare a medium-hot grill. Grill skewers for 6-8 minutes, uncovered if using a charcoal grill. Turn gently using tongs to cook all sides.
