Merguez Toast
Ingredients
- Ingredients for 8 open-faced sandwiches:
- 8 spicy vegetarian merguez sausages from Happyvore
- 8 thick slices of country-style bread
- A few arugula leaves
- Olive oil
- 2 cloves of garlic
- Freshly ground pepper
- For cold pickles:
- ½ zucchini
- 1 red onion
- 15 cl of water
- 5 cl white vinegar
- 50 grams of sugar
The Step-by-Step Recipe
Step by step:
1/ Start by preparing the pickles. Peel and thinly slice the red onion. Wash the zucchini and cut it into thin strips using a vegetable peeler. Mix the sugar, vinegar, and water, then add the vegetables to make cold pickles. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes before using. The pickles will keep for one week in the refrigerator in an airtight container.
2/ Toast the slices of bread in olive oil, then rub them with the garlic cloves cut in half.
3/ Sear the merguez sausages in a skillet with a drizzle of olive oil for about 3 minutes on each side until they are nicely browned. Remove from the pan and cut them in half on the diagonal.
4/ Assemble the open-faced sandwiches by starting with a few leaves of arugula on the bread. Add the merguez sausages, followed by the vegetable pickles, and finish with a drizzle of olive oil and a twist of the pepper mill. Enjoy right away!
