These plant-based sausages taste great, contain no added fat except
the vegetable oil they're fried in, and are easy to make. These
ingredients yield fairly mild sausages; after you've tried them,
adjust the seasonings to please your palate.
DIRECTIONS: =========== Combine all ingredients in a mixing bowl, mix
thoroughly, and shape into 1- to 2-inch sausages. Saute in a small
amount of vegetable oil until crisp, or place in a baking pan and
broil, turning when edges are slightly crisp. Serve with Mushroom-Red
Pepper Sauce (below).
MUSHROOM-RED PEPPER SAUCE: Cook red pepper in vegetable broth for 5
to 7 minutes until tender. Add mushrooms, onion, salt, celery seed,
oregano, and black pepper. Cook 5 minutes longer or until onion is
transparent. Quickly whisk in enough flour to just thicken the sauce,
about 2 tablespoons at a time. Immediately remove from burner. Do not
overcook, or flour will cake. If needed, add more vegetable broth or
water. Serve over sausages, whole grains, or vegetables.
