There are several delicious variations of Goan pork sausages that you can try, each adding a unique twist to the traditional recipe. Here are a few ideas:
1. Chicken Sausages:
Substitute pork with chicken for a lighter version. Use boneless chicken thighs for a juicier texture.
Follow this same marination and cooking process.
2. Beef Sausages:
Replace pork with beef for a different flavor profile. Ensure you use a cut with some fat to keep the sausages moist.
Adjust the cooking time as beef may take a bit longer to cook.
3. Spicy Sausages:
Increase the number of chilies or add a few bird’s eye chilies to the spice paste for an extra kick.
You can also add a teaspoon of red chili powder to the marinade.
4. Herbed Sausages:
Incorporate fresh herbs like coriander, mint, or parsley into the spice paste.
This adds a fresh, aromatic twist to the sausages.
5. Smoked Sausages:
Smoke the sausages after marinating them. Use a smoker or a barbecue grill with wood chips to infuse a smoky flavor.
This method enhances the depth of flavor and gives the sausages a traditional touch.
6. Vegetarian Sausages:
Use a mix of vegetables like mushrooms, carrots, and beans as a base.
Add the same spice paste to the vegetables and bind them with breadcrumbs or chickpea flour before shaping them into sausages.
7. Sweet and Spicy Sausages:
Add a bit of jaggery or brown sugar to the marinade for a sweet and spicy balance.
This variation is great for those who enjoy a hint of sweetness in their sausages.
Feel free to experiment with these variations to find your favorite!
