What is the difference between Chipolatas and Sausages?

The difference between chipolatas and sausages is their size. 

Sausages come in all different shapes and sizes with the most common being the long thin traditional beef sausage. Chipolatas are much smaller and about 1/2 the length of a regular sausage. 

Chipolata Sausages recipes are the best as they bring a party vibe to the plate with endless possibilities!!

Where to buy Chipolatas?

You can find Chipolatas at your local grocery store. I bought these beef ones at Woolies. The most common flavours are beef, pork and chicken. Some varieties have a combination of flavours like honey chicken chipolatas. 

You can also get them at the butchers. 

How to Cook Chipolatas

The best way to cook chipolatas is in a pan on the stove. This is an easy and quick method. You can also cook them on the BBQ, grill plate or in the oven. They cook much the same way as sausages, the main point of difference being the chipolatas as smaller than sausages will cook faster!

Notes

• Note 1 Beef, pork or chicken chipolatas will all taste delicious with the other ingredients for this recipe. You will find them in the cold meat section of the supermarket. I recommend plain flavoured chipolotas ie not chicken and honey for this recipe. We are added lots of other flavours, so plain sausages will do the trick. 
• Note 2 The sausages I used in the photos are beef flavour. 600 grams is approx 16 sausages and they are gluten free. 
• Note 3 If you are unsure if the chipolatas are cooked properly, remove one, cut it in half and view insides. They should be fully browned with no pink raw sausage meat visible. 
• Note 4 Absorb any oil still in the base of the pan with paper towel as the base will be greasy enough to not need any excess mixing with the sauce.
