Step 2

Step 3

Place the pricked sausages in your skillet. Turn the heat to medium and fry the sausages in the pan until they're golden.

Step 4

Bake the sausages in a lidded skillet for half an hour at 300 degrees Fahrenheit, removing the lid halfway through so the meat can brown.

Step 5

Simmer Swedish sausage in a pot of chicken stock for 45 minutes to one hour, until soft and cooked through.
