And what kind of sauce would you use with this dish. Does it make pan drippings to make a sauce from that ?
-
Not sure what you mean about "what sauce". This recipe makes "sausage" patties just like you would have if you ordered breakfast, eg. Pancakes & sausage. No there are no pan drippings, that is why they are healthier and why you have to add oil.
Or you could make a soy or nut milk gravy to serve over biscuits; or you crumble the final product into pan baked dressing ("stuffing" )
