This meatless sausage patty is the most convincing non meat-trying-to-be-meat recipe I have ever made. I first learned it from a Youtube channel called I’m Still Workin. Since she uploaded the video, a few other Youtubers shared their own versions and I was so impressed, I decided to present my own rendition. (Check out her video here.)

Then you add a flavourful stock and simmer for 20 minutes, then fry them again. The result is a perfectly springy, spicy and surprisingly satisfying “sausage” patty! Simmering the patties after the first browning seemed a little odd to me at first, but I believe this step creates the meaty texture one tries to achieve when emulating meat from plants. The liquid can include a boullion cube, soy sauce, herb scraps or nothing at all. I recommend adding at least a little flavour to it as sausage is naturally a savoury, flavour packed delight.

How Can I Make Meatless Sausage Vegan?

If you want to make these vegan, replace the 2 eggs with 6 tablespoons of aquafaba. I have tried it, and it works! This is simply the water that is drained from a can of chickpeas, or saved from cooking your own. Only until recently it was discovered that aquafaba (“bean water”), can replace eggs in many vegan recipes. If you’d like to learn more about aquafaba and even make your own, click here and I will show you how!

You can also use flax eggs. For each egg required in a recipe, mix 1 tablespoon of ground flax seed with 2 tablespoons of water. Allow it to sit for several minutes until it turns thick and goopy, like egg. This acts as a binder, making it a suitable replacer for eggs. It is also a high source of Omega-3, among other benefits.
If times are tough or you are trying to cut back on meat but still crave a hearty, satisfying sausage patty–try this recipe! They make great breakfast sandwiches. You can also crumble them into simmering tomato sauce for a tempting meat free Bolognese. If you didn’t tell a carnivore the difference, they likely would never know. I challenge you to try it!
