Instructions
-
Prepare the Vegetables:
- Wash the onions and slice them into thin julienne strips.
- Remove the seeds from both the red and green bell peppers and slice them thinly.
- Wash and discard any damaged parts of the green onions, then chop them finely.
-
-
Sauté the Vegetables:
- Heat a small amount of oil in a large, deep skillet over medium heat.
- Add the chopped onions, green onions, and bell peppers to the skillet. Stir occasionally and cook until the vegetables are softened, about 10 minutes.
-
Prepare the Tomatoes:
- Bring a pot of water to a boil. Immerse the tomatoes in the boiling water for a few minutes until the skin starts to loosen.
- Remove the tomatoes from the water, peel off the skin, and chop them into small pieces.
-
Combine the Tomatoes with the Vegetables:
- Add the chopped tomatoes to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables.
- Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste.
- Continue cooking the vegetables over medium heat for about 5-10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
-
Boil the Sausages:
- Before adding the sausages to the skillet, it is recommended to puncture the sausages with a fork and boil them in water for 15 minutes.
- This step helps to release excess fat, which will remain in the water and not contribute to the sauce.
-
Add the Sausages:
- After boiling, wash the sausages under cold water and puncture them again to ensure they don’t burst during cooking.
- Add the sausages to the skillet with the vegetable mixture and pour in the red wine. Stir everything together.
-
Simmer the Dish:
- Let the sausages simmer uncovered in the skillet for about 20 minutes. If you have pre-boiled the sausages, reduce the cooking time to 10 minutes.
- Allow the wine to reduce and the flavors to intensify.
-
Final Touches:
- Taste and adjust seasoning as necessary with additional salt or pepper.
- Serve the sausages hot, paired with crusty bread or enjoyed on their own for a fulfilling meal.
Tips for the Best Pomarola Sausages:
- For an extra touch of flavor, you can use a combination of different types of sausages such as chorizo or Italian sausages.
- If you prefer a thicker sauce, you can simmer it longer to reduce the wine and juices from the vegetables.
- This dish can be served with a side of rice, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
Enjoy the vibrant and comforting flavors of this Argentinean-inspired dish, perfect for a satisfying lunch or dinner that’s easy to make, full of flavor, and perfect for any occasion.
