Homemade Pork Sausage – this has got to be one of the best things we learned to make at home during the lockdown!! The hubs who is keen in trying out something new kept coaxing me to put my old Kenwood Stand mixer to use. We had bought it almost a decade ago in Dubai when we were here on a holiday. However, like most of the gadgets that find a dark spot in our homes, this one too joined the bandwagon of the lost & forgotten tribe of gadgets! At his behest I pulled out the sausage maker attachments and we both got to work, creating different flavours including the homemade chorizo, Goan style, which unfortunately did not turn out as well as we had hoped for. If all our future experiments go well, we maybe able to crack the recipe and add Goan sausages to our repertoire and I’ll be sure to share that recipe with you!
When we started to make this we decided to try out 2 different flavours. We weren’t sure how they would turn out but it was a pleasant surprise. Both of these are my hubby’s efforts, I was just the assistant. He prepped up for both the recipes and we decided to shoot the video anyway. If the sausages flopped, we could always trash the video but thankfully they didnt! We were so happy with the outcome that we made some more that same week and shared with my brother and they loved it as well!
Whether you have a manual sausage maker or an attachment to your stand mixer this will be a one time effort in obtaining some delicious, preservative free sausages.
Where can I buy the sausage casing? Will I get it in India?
You can find the sausage casing in any store that sells pork. If you are in UAE, you could check out the Westzone, Spinney’s or Waitrose outlets. You can also find them online, on desertcart.ae or Amazon.ae. However, if you are planning to buy it on Amazon India here’s the link . Do check it out!
Pork sausages are a great addition to your breakfast platter and they taste super awesome too minus all the preservatives. Do give it a try!

- Marinate both the meats separately with their respective the ingredients for marination and keep aside for at least 30 minutes.
- Run the meats through a meat mincer separately and keep aside.
- Attach the sausage casing to the sausage maker and tie a knot at the end. Fill it with the prepared mince mixtures separately, adding a knot at the end.

2- Kindly let me know where to buy the grinding machine approx value and do we need the attachment shown in vdo
Thank you
Hi,
Thanks a lot! Well, I don’t sell the sausages. I made them for home use. I used my Kenwood stand mixer that came with the meat mincer and sausage maker attachments. You could check on Amazon for the prices, pls check reviews before buying
Can you make sausages without the sausage maker device?
Hi Lynette,
You will need to put the mince inside the casing and it is easier to do that with the sausage maker…you get manual (non electric) ones too on Amazon that are not so expensive
The sausages look crazily yum. Easy to make provided the machine is there.
Thanks a lot! Well, you can buy a manual sausage maker actually..it will take slightly more effort!
helo Shireen,
well i couldnt sleep over this reciepe, i ordered the casing immediately and bought the meat mince machine, and tried the sausauges, your explaining was so easy to follow, i dont think i would go back to store bought sausages (at least for the kids) after this.
thanks a lot.
regards,
