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 Ciabatta
Add half of your chopped onions to a pre-heated pan with a drizzle of olive oil on medium heat. Mix continuously until the onions are caramelized. Add rosemary and thyme to the onions, along with roughly 1 cup of beer. Mix until the beer evaporates.
For the sauce, lightly fry some onions and garlic in a pan. When the onions are translucent, add two handfuls of chopped mushrooms and cook over medium heat. Add a quarter cup of Worcestershire sauce and simmer until reduced. Add half a cup of cream, simmer for two minutes, and set the sauce aside.
Cook your Maltese sausage in a pan until golden brown.
For sandwich preparation and assembly, lightly toast your ciabatta. Generously spread both sides with garlic butter. Add your rucola as a base and place some sauce on top. Add your Maltese sausage to the ciabatta, along with a layer of your preferred cheese on top. Finish off with some more of that delicious sauce and enjoy!

Maltese Sausage Pasta Chips
Cut the tip of the sausage and pump it into each Pacchero, filling them to the brim.
Place them into a steamer and close the lid. Set the steamer over a boiling pot of water and steam the pasta and sausage for 15 minutes.
Please note that the pasta will puff up and the sausage will shrink. This is normal, so trust the process.
In a shallow dish, mix the Grana Padano cheese with the herbs. Spray some oil over the pasta to make them sticky, then roll them through the cheese mixture.
Place the coated pasta into an air fryer and crisp them up at 170°C for about 15 minutes. Allow them to cool down; they will get crispier as they cool.

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!
