Sai Gog Khao Jee#EattheWorld

Sai Gog Khao Jee is Laotian Pork Sausage Sandwich which is served on a French baguette. The sandwich is usually filled with pork sausage , topped with carrots, watercress and slathered with a chili sauce to bring it all together. I used whatever is available here. We do not get fresh pork sausages in casings so I made the pork sausage minus the casing, got pork mince which was fatty enough and made sausage patties.

This is a filling sandwich which makes a perfect brunch or dinner.

Ingredients
For the Sausage

250 Grams Pork Mince
2 Tablespoons Coriander Leaves - finely chopped
2 Spring Onions - green and white finely chopped
1 Teaspoon Minced Ginger
1 Tablespoon Lemon grass - white part only, minced
1 Teaspoon Minced Garlic

3 - 4 Green Chilies - finely chopped
1 Tablespoon Fish sauce
Salt to taste

1 Tablespoon Fish Sauce 
1 Tablespoon Chilly Sauce
1 Teaspoon Oil
Other Ingredients

Method
For the Chili Sauce 
In a small skillet, heat a tablespoons of the oil. Add the shallot  and cook over moderate heat, stirring a few times, until soft and translucent. Add the garlic and cook for a minute. Add the sauces and mix well. Remove this into a bowl and keep aside.

Mix everything together well to evenly disperse all the ingredients. 
Divide the meat into equal size pieces and roll into sausage shapes.
