Prep aromatic paste: Add all Thai Sausage Components to a blender, food processor, or mortar & pestle except the fish sauce and ground pork.

Mix the sausage: Add the pork and fish sauce to a bowl. Mix together. Next, add in the aromatic paste and mix until homogenous.

Cook a portion right away, or follow the freezing instructions (Freezer Bag Squares Prep Method) below.

Cook the sausage: Add one frozen sausage square (or about a 1/4 of the sausage mix) to a wok or pan on medium-high heat. Let the sausage fat render and begin to crisp up the meat. When you have some good browning, flip the sausage and start to chop it up, about 4-5 more minutes.

Finish the stir fry: Add in the vegetable component, a pinch of salt, and stir fry with the sausage until some browning occurs and the vegetable has been softened to your liking.

Serve: Heat up some cooked rice and add the stir fry over top. Enjoy with condiments of your choice.
