👨🍳 步驟
- 1
Prepare the sausages: If the sausages are very large, slice them into 1-2 inch pieces. If they are smaller, you can leave them whole or halve them lengthwise. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat (around 200°C / 400°F). Add the sausage pieces and brown them on all sides until nicely colored, about 5-7 minutes. Do not cook through. Remove the browned sausages from the pot with a slotted spoon and set aside, leaving the rendered fat in the pot.
⏱️ 7 minutes - 2
Sauté the aromatics: Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the pot if needed. Reduce the heat to medium (around 180°C / 350°F). Add the chopped onion and sauté until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the chopped bell peppers and minced garlic (if using) and cook for another 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the peppers begin to soften and the garlic is fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
⏱️ 12 minutes - 3
Build the sauce: Stir in the crushed tomatoes, dried oregano, and red pepper flakes (if using). Season with a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Reduce the heat to low (around 150°C / 300°F), cover, and let it simmer gently for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
⏱️ 15 minutes - 4
Combine and finish: Return the browned sausages to the pot with the tomato and pepper mixture. Stir to combine. Cover the pot again and continue to simmer gently over low heat for another 15-20 minutes, or until the sausages are cooked through and the sauce has thickened slightly to your liking. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if necessary. The sauce should coat the back of a spoon.
