3. Guide on making fragrant betel leaf sausages
Step 1: Prepare the ingredients
Choose lean pork, preferably shoulder meat without excessive fat. After purchase, rinse the meat and drain the water. Then, finely chop and grind it with a meat grinder.
Clean and drain the betel leaves. Cut off the stems to make it easier to roll the meat. Take about 2 - 3 betel leaves, finely chop them to mix with the ground pork for a richer aroma. Rinse the fresh leaves and finely chop them, then clean and finely chop the dried onions.
Step 2: Mix the meat filling
Put the ground meat in a bowl, then add chopped betel leaves, dried onions, and finely chopped betel leaves. Add seasoning: 1 tablespoon of fish sauce, 2 teaspoons of seasoning powder, and ½ teaspoon of ground pepper. Mix well and let it marinate for about 15 minutes for the meat to absorb the spices evenly.
Step 3: Roll betel leaf sausages
To roll beautiful and even betel leaf sausages, fold the edges of the betel leaf. Then, place a spoonful of meat in the middle and roll from the stem upwards. Repeat until all the meat and betel leaves are used.
Step 4: Grill betel leaf sausages
Place the sausages in an oil-free frying pan. Then, brush a thin layer of cooking oil on the surface of the sausages. Turn on the oven and grill at 180 degrees for 10 minutes to cook the meat.
After the first 10 minutes of grilling, open the oven, flip the sausages, and continue grilling for another 8 minutes at 180 degrees until the sausages are golden brown and cooked through.
