Sweet Italian sausage with homemade sauce

Making:

Sweet Italian sausage with homemade tomato sauce and broccoli 

1 serving prepared 

Here's what I have:


Sauce:
4 cups Tomatoes 
1/4 cup Heavy cream 
3 cloves Garlic 
1.5 tbsp Butter 
1/2 cup Onion 
1 tbsp Spice Island Rosemary garlic 
1/4 tsp pink salt 


Meat and veggies: 
1.5 cup Broccoli 
1/4 cup Veggie broth 
5 oz Sweet Italian sausage 
1/4 cup Mozzarella

Preperation:

In a stainless steel pan I melted 1 tbsp butter, start the sauce by sauteing the onions. The onions were cooked until mostly clear and they had a nice brown color, the garlic was added after this. The onion and garlic for cook together for three minutes on high heat and then the tomatoes were added. 

With the heat turned to medium and the lid on the tomatoes were allowed to cook, 10 mins until easily broken apart. Last into the pot, heavy cream and spices. Everything was mixed well and a sausage allowed to cook until reduced/thickened a bit.  For a smoother sauce you could run this through a blender.

The sauce: 

In a cast iron pan the Italian sausage were cooked with the remaining butter on med-high heat for 6 minutes total. Flipping halfway through then adding broth and broccoli to the pan. 

With the lid on the heat was turned down between low and medium and everything was cooked for an additional 8 minutes. The lid was removed 3 minutes before the meat and veggies were finished to allow any remaining liquid to cook off. Mozzarella was added during plating.

The plate!



The sauce is the most involved part of this recipe but it doesn't take that long to make unless you decide to blend to smooth it out. The sauce also works very well for chicken.

Cheese tortilla party

Making:  Cheese tortilla! 6 servings prepared. Here's what I have: 284 Grams of king Arthur masa harina 60 Grams cheese powder  30 Grams butter powder  419 grams hot water  Preparation: The dry ingredients were combined in the mixing bowl. With the stand mixer set to stir I slowly added the hot water until the dough ball formed. Once everything was well Incorporated the adult wall was divided into six portions. A damp paper towel was placed over the dough so it didn't try out as the tortillas were cooked.  Using a parchment lined tortilla press each dough ball was pressed just before cooking on the Comal. Each side was allowed to cook for 30-45 seconds before flipping. This allowed each side to dry out just enough. The second cook was done until the tortilla puffed up and Browning was beginning to form.  The plate! - Kris
