Welcome to Backyard Chef, I'm Rick. Today we're making beef sausages.

Start with 2 kilos of beef mince (80-20).

Add breadcrumbs and a whole array of spices: salt, paprika, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, nutmeg, oregano, thyme, coriander.

Mix the spices with the beef mince thoroughly to avoid lumps.

Put on gloves and incorporate the spices into the beef by mixing well.

Add cold water to the beef mixture and mix again.

Incorporate the breadcrumbs into the mixture, followed by the remaining cold water.

Optionally, add milk powder to help bind the meat together.

Stuff the sausage skins with the meat mixture using a sausage stuffer or by hand, ensuring to eliminate air bubbles.

Twist the sausages to the desired size and tie them off.

Place the sausages in the fridge for a few hours to let the flavors meld.

Heat a pan with a little oil over a low flame.

Cook the sausages slowly in the pan, avoiding high heat to ensure even cooking.

Taste test the sausages to check for flavor and texture.
