How do you cook faggots?

Bought some from the butchers, ds had them at his childminders once about 2 yrs ago.

But I've never had them before, and forgot to ask the butcher. Any clues?

Only have experience of frozen faggots by Brains - with those you just bung the foil container in the oven for about 40 mins.
I assume that you could put them in the oven for a shorter time, given that yours won't be frozen.

I'd bake them. Would imagine they would take about 40 mins? Basically treat them as large round sausages

You brown them in a pan with loads of onions and then add to stock and cook in the oven.

Then thicken the stock to make a yummy gravey.

eat with Chips or mash - yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Thank you.

Am I right that they'll taste of liver? I don't know whether to have them myself, cos I don't like liver.

no they don't taste of liver, IIRC the main ingredient is bit of heart. Basically the same as sausages: offal chopped up with herbs and pepper and stuff.

right, I'm off to make onion gravy then, apparently.

thanks for your help.

where they yummy and did they impart all their flavour in the gravy.

DH lovvvvvvvvvvvves gravy a proper Northern Bloke. DS1 would drink it from the boat if we let him

clumsymum · 14/11/2007 17:22

Well, DH and DS both loved them, and were very impressed by my cooking them in onion gravy. DH said it put him in mind of his granny

I really was not impressed, but I don't like offal very much anyway. I'll do them again, but maybe one day when I've been out to lunch or something, and can give them a miss.

Can you cook 6 Mr. Brains faggots in a Daewoo air fryer oven, and how long for?
