Merguez Sausages

Full product description

Fiery, fragrant and full of character, our merguez sausages bring North African street-food energy to your grill. Coarse-ground (traditionally lamb, sometimes with a touch of beef) and boldly seasoned with chilli, paprika, cumin, coriander and garlic, they sizzle to a deep red crust with a juicy centre. Pan, oven or BBQ in minutes, then stuff into flatbreads with salad and yoghurt, or serve over couscous with a squeeze of lemon.
