Here’s how you can cook Pork sausages in a pan to get them perfectly cooked and flavourful:
Instructions for Cooking Pork Sausages in a Pan:
Preheat the Pan:
Heat a non-stick or cast-iron pan over medium heat. Since sausages have some fat, you don’t need to add much oil, but a light drizzle of oil (like vegetable or olive oil) can help prevent sticking.
Add the Sausages:
Once the pan is hot, place the sausages in it, making sure they have enough space between them to cook evenly.
Sear the Sausages:
Allow the sausages to brown on each side, turning them every 2-3 minutes. Depending on their size, this should take around 10-12 minutes. You want them to get an even golden-brown colour.
Lower the Heat:
After the sausages are browned on all sides, reduce the heat to low. This allows them to cook through without burning the outside.
Cook Through:
Continue to cook the sausages for another 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally. You can test if they’re done by cutting into one—there should be no pink meat, and the juices should run clear. Alternatively, a meat thermometer ensures the internal temperature reaches 70°C.
Rest and Serve:
Once cooked, remove the sausages from the pan and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. This helps the juices redistribute, keeping them juicy and flavorful.
Enjoy your perfectly pan-cooked Pork sausages!
