browning each batch for about 8 minutes.
Y ou r eally want to get the sausages nice
and brown to bring out the gr eat flavors.
This step should take about 20 to 22

2. Once the sausages ar e browned, put
them into the pot and reduce the heat to
350°F . Add the oil. Once oil is hot, add the
onions and cook 8 to 10 minutes, or until

the sweetness of the onions, which adds to

occasionally.
