Hướng dẫn

FOR THE SAUSAGES

Combine all the ingredients and mix together very well. Form into 8 {2½-inch} patties. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to all the flavors to come together. Patties can definitely be made ahead and can also be frozen at this point.

FOR THE DISH

Brown the sausages on both sides, releasing some of the fat, and cook through. Move them to the side after you've turned them over.

Add the grapes and the rosemary and cook till the grapes are puffed and a little blistered.

Add the wine or water and reduce it, being sure to keep a bit of liquid in the pan.

Serve two patties for each person with crusty bread and something green like sauteed spinach. OR like I did ... with polenta.
