Preparation

  1. 1.
    In a large mixing bowl, combine the minced pork, grated ginger, minced garlic, ground cardamom, ground turmeric, Sikkim pepper, and salt. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
  2. 2.
    Shape the mixture into sausage-shaped cylinders, approximately 10cm (4 inches) long and 2.5cm (1 inch) in diameter.
  3. 3.
    Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the sausages to the pan and cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are golden brown and cooked through.
  4. 4.
    Remove the sausages from the pan and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
  5. 5.
    Serve the Sikkimese-inspired spiced sausages hot with your choice of accompaniments.

Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Ginger — Make sure to grate the ginger finely to ensure it blends well with the minced pork.
  • Sikkim pepper — If you can't find Sikkim pepper, you can substitute it with regular black pepper for a similar flavor.

Tips & Tricks

  • For an extra burst of flavor, marinate the sausages in the spice mixture overnight before cooking.
  • Serve the sausages with a side of Sikkimese tomato chutney for a tangy accompaniment.
  • If you prefer a spicier kick, add a pinch of red chili powder to the spice mixture.

Serving advice

Serve the Sikkimese-inspired spiced sausages as a main course alongside steamed rice or traditional Sikkimese bread. Garnish with fresh cilantro leaves for a pop of color and freshness.

Presentation advice

Arrange the sausages on a platter, placing them diagonally for an appealing visual presentation. Drizzle a small amount of Sikkimese tomato chutney over the sausages for an added touch of color and flavor.
