Where to find ingredients
Calabresa sausage: You will likely find this in the deli section of most Coles or Woolworths under the label 'Calabresa' or 'Brazilian-style sausage'. If unavailable at your local supermarket, visit a dedicated Latin American grocer or a specialist deli. Onion and dried oregano: Readily available at any local supermarket in the produce and herb and spice aisles, respectively.
Preparation method
- Place the grated calabresa sausage and diced onion into a pan
- Sauté over medium heat until the onion is soft and the sausage is beautifully browned
- Drain any excess fat that has collected at the bottom of the pan
- Sprinkle the oregano over the mixture and toss well to combine
- Allow the filling to cool down completely before using it in your recipes
Observations
A versatile filling perfect for pizzas, savoury pastries, or pies. The secret to a perfect result is making sure the mixture is nice and dry, and completely cooled before you start assembling your pastries.
