Homemade sausage patties
Recipe video above. This is your favourite pork sausage in patty form. It's so easy - just pork mince (ground pork) mixed with a spice blend. Great to make ahead and freeze, then cook up on demand.Serve for dinner with garlic rice and steamed green beans tossed with French Dressing. O make burgers! Also great for breakfast with scrambled eggs on toast. (I'd still use ketchup :) )

Ingredients
Sausage patties:
- 500g/ 1 lb pork mince (ground pork) (sub chicken, turkey)
- 1 tsp dried ground sage (secret ingredient! Note 1)
- 1/2 tsp dried thyme , crushed with fingers (Note 2)
- 1 tsp onion powder (sub more garlic powder)
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder (sub more onion powder)
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 3/4 tsp cooking / kosher salt (or 1/2 tsp table salt)
- 1/2 tsp sugar (optional)
Cooking & serving:
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Ketchup for serving
Instructions
- Make patties - Place sausage pattie ingredients in a bowl and mix well with your hands. Divide into 8 and form 1 cm / 0.4" thick patties. Make a shallow dent in the middle of the surface - this prevents the patties from doming as they cook.
- Cook 4 minutes - Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large non stick pan over medium high heat. Cook half the patties for 2 minutes on each side until golden. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate. Heat remaining oil and cook remaining patties.
- Serve with ketchup! (See recipe card intro for serving ideas)

Notes
- Dried sage is the secret spice that makes this so good! Don't have it? Substitute with 1/2 tsp paprika + 1/4 tsp cumin + 1/4 tsp extra garlic powder. Different flavour but still very tasty, makes up for missing sage.
- Thyme - Roughly crush it with your fingers so it becomes a little more powdery coaxes more flavour out of it. :)
- Leftovers - Cooked leftovers can be kept for 3 days in the fridge. Uncooked raw patties will keep for as long as the raw pork will, or in the freezer for 3 months (thaw then cook per recipe). Freeze in a single layer on trays then stack in an airtight container. Else, put paper between each one (I can't be bothered which is why I freeze on trays first!).
