Air Fryer Cocktail Sausages - Mini Pork Sausages Recipe
These Air Fryer Cocktail Sausages are simplicity itself. They're an ideal little snack or delicious as part of a buffet or picnic spread. Just as tasty served hot or cold, these mini pork sausages are great for lunchboxes too or even as a fun addition to a breakfast feast.
Ingredients
- 18 Cocktail Sausages - around 15g/½oz each
- ½ tsp Vegetable Oil
Instructions
- If your air fryer requires pre-heating, start this setting now.
- Take 18 Cocktail Sausages out of the packet and cut into individual links if needed. Give them a pat dry with kitchen paper if they are at all wet.
- Drizzle over or spray roughly ½ tsp Oil and move the sausages around so they are coated all over with a very thin layer of the oil.
- Use tongs to place the sausages into the air fryer basket. Or just tip them in! Leave a little space between each so the air can circulate.
- Air fry for 9 minutes at 200c/390f.
- And serve!
To Cook From Frozen
- Prepare 18 Cocktail Sausages by making sure they are all separated. If there is any ice on them at all, give them a quick run under the cold tap to remove it and they dry them thoroughly with a towel.
- Drizzle or spray with ½ tsp Oil and move the sausages around so they are all coated over with a very thin layer of the oil.
- Place the sausages into the air fryer basket. Leave a little space between each so the air can circulate.
- Air fry for 10 minutes at 200c/390f.
- If you want to turn them a couple of times as they cook then you can do - I don't need to using the rack in my air fryer.
- Serve!
Notes
- The air fryer version of this recipe is tested in a Cosori Lite (CAF-LI401S) with a 3.8 litre capacity. The square(ish) shaped basket is 21cm x 21cm and 24cm on the diagonal.
- Not all models advise preheating is required. Please follow the recommended instructions for your model. Mine has a specific preheat setting which is 4 minutes at 205c.
- For this recipe, I can easily fit 18 cocktail sausages in the basket at a time. This gives plenty of room to allow air to circulate. I could probably fit in double this but they may take longer to cook and need to be turned a time or two.
- As all air fryer models are a little different, you may find that you can fit more or less in at a time. Some models include stacking shelves which will increase capacity.
- Required cooking times and temperatures can also vary between models and brands. If you know that your air fryer runs a little hotter than most recipes suggest, use a lower temperature. And vice versa. Equally if you find that food cooks more quickly in your machine than instructions usually state, reduce the cooking time (or check it earlier) and vice versa.
