Recipes including Maltese Sausage.
Fresh Pasta Roses with Maltese Sausage in a Creamy Béchamel Sauce
Create a mound with the flour, making a well in the center. Crack the eggs into the well. Use a fork to whisk gently, incorporating the flour gradually. Knead the mixture until it is smooth and elastic, which should take about 6 minutes. Allow the dough to rest in a bowl covered with a cloth for at least 30 minutes.
Cook the Maltese sausage over medium heat until fully cooked, breaking it into small pieces. Let the sausage cool. Mix the cooled sausage, chopped fresh basil, sun-dried tomatoes, salt, and freshly ground black pepper until well combined.
Melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour to form a smooth roux, cooking for about 2 minutes until it is lightly golden. Gradually add the milk, whisking constantly to avoid lumps. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and cook until thickened, which should take about 5-7 minutes. Stir in the grated Parmigiano Reggiano. Season with salt, freshly ground black pepper, and a pinch of freshly grated nutmeg if desired.
Roll out the pasta dough into thin sheets using a pasta machine or a rolling pin. Cut the dough into long strips, about 3-4 inches wide. Spread each pasta strip with a generous layer of béchamel sauce. Place small spoonfuls of the savory filling along the strip of dough. Fold the dough over the filling and press to seal the edges. Gently roll each filled section into a rose shape.
Preheat your oven to 180°C. Spread a thick layer of béchamel sauce on the bottom of a baking dish. Arrange the pasta roses in the dish and spoon the remaining béchamel sauce over them. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the pasta is perfectly cooked and the filling is heated through. Garnish with additional grated Parmigiano Reggiano and some freshly ground pepper before serving.
No time for fresh pasta? Store-bought lasagne sheets work wonders! Serve with a crisp side salad and warm garlic bread for a complete, satisfying meal.

Maltese Sausage and Pistachio Pesto Ravioli
In a food processor, combine the pistachios, basil, mint, and garlic. Pulse until the mixture is chunky. Gradually add the olive oil while processing until the pesto is smooth. Stir in the grated cheese and season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the ravioli and cook according to package instructions. Reserve ¼ cup of the pasta cooking water before draining.
In a pan, heat a bit of olive oil. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté until softened. Add the sausage meat, breaking it up with a spoon, and cook until browned. Add the cooked ravioli to the pan along with the pistachio pesto. Toss to combine, adding the reserved ravioli water a little at a time to create a creamy sauce.
Serve immediately, topped with extra grated cheese. Enjoy your flavorful Maltese Sausage and Pistachio Pesto Ravioli!

Cheese and Maltese Sausage Muffins
In a large bowl, combine your all-purpose flour and baking powder and give it a whisk. Then add in your grated cheeses (keep a little bit for the topping), chopped green onions, salt, pepper, and any other additional seasonings you want to add. Give it all a good mix.
In another slightly smaller bowl, combine your melted butter, yogurt, milk, and egg. Whisk until combined. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and add in the chopped crispy Maltese sausage bits (leaving a little handful for the topping). Combine using a spatula until everything is incorporated. You want a sticky but not runny dough.
Preheat your oven to 180°C/355°F (fan). Get some extra melted butter and brush your muffin tin so that the muffins don’t stick while cooking.
Using an ice cream scoop or two spoons, evenly dollop the mixture into the 12 muffin tin casings. Evenly top with your leftover grated cheddar and chopped sausage bits. Once your oven has reached temperature, place the tin in the oven for 25 minutes until the tops of your muffins are golden brown and the insides are light and fluffy.
Enjoy warm or cool!

Maltese Sausage Riggatoni
Break down 2 Maltese sausages into small pieces. Heat a pan over medium heat, add a drizzle of olive oil, and cook the sausage pieces until they are crispy. Remove the sausage and set aside, leaving the fat in the pan.
In the same pan, add sliced mushrooms and sauté until browned and tender. Season with black pepper, chopped parsley, and smoked paprika. Return the cooked sausage to the pan with the mushrooms.
Cook the rigatoni pasta according to the package instructions until al dente, reserving a cup of the pasta cooking water. Add a splash of the reserved pasta water to the sausage and mushroom mixture to add moisture, and cook until the water has reduced slightly.
Stir in fresh cream and a dash of curry powder, mixing well to combine and heat through. Toss the cooked rigatoni into the sauce, ensuring the pasta is well coated.
Serve with a sprinkle of grated cheese and additional chopped parsley if desired. Enjoy your delicious Rigatoni with Maltese Sausage and Mushroom Sauce!
