Some general information

Kupaty is a product of Georgian cuisine, so sometimes you can find another name for it - Georgian sausages. Based on the filling, there are two types of this dish. In the first case, kupaty are filled with minced meat: a mixture of beef and pork, only beef, only pork. In the second option, it is minced liver: lung, heart, liver, etc.

But there is also an obligatory element of two types of kupat. We are talking about spices such as cloves, cinnamon, pepper. When this dish is prepared in Georgia, it always contains barberry berries and suneli hops. How to prepare kupaty? Main methods: in a frying pan, on the grill, in the oven. If you decide to pierce them with a skewer, they will lose their juice and the dish will not turn out very appetizing.

Preparing for frying

To prevent the kupats from bursting when frying, they need to be immersed in boiling water for literally one minute. Then blot with a paper towel or air dry. If the sausages are frozen, defrost them. It is recommended to fry over medium heat (and best of all with lard). If you want a crispy crust, turn up the heat before finishing cooking.

By spreading the fried kupaty with tomato sauce or ketchup, we get a more appetizing-looking dish, with a golden brown and spicy crust. If you pierce them on each side with a needle, this will allow the sausages to remain intact and not burst. We have reviewed the basic requirements for how to cook kupaty in a frying pan; now let’s move on to describing the process itself.

The first method of frying kupat

The dish must be prepared correctly, as the natural casing may burst due to pressure or sudden temperature changes. We offer three ways to properly cook sausages in a frying pan. The first method involves boiling the kupats in a small amount of water and then frying them after all the liquid has evaporated.

Pour one tablespoon of vegetable oil and half a glass of water into the frying pan, add the kupaty, close the lid and cook for five minutes. Then turn it over to the other side and fry for another five minutes. Remove the lid and continue cooking, turning occasionally. How long to fry kupaty in a frying pan? About 15 minutes until they acquire a brown-golden crust.

Second way

We pre-boil our sausages, and to make them even more aromatic, we do it with spices. For a liter of water you need to take two teaspoons of salt, four bay leaves, black and allspice, half a teaspoon each of coriander and dill seeds. Cook for five to ten minutes. Then it is advisable to let them cool in the broth. Remove from the saucepan, pat dry with paper towels, and fry in butter or vegetable oil. At the moment, we have already considered two ways to cook kupaty in a frying pan.

Third way

A delicious meat dish can be stewed in a frying pan, and not just fried. In this case, the sauce, for example, tomato-garlic, will remove excess fat from the sausages. The only question is how to do it. For this we need three tomatoes, two onions, five cloves of garlic, a five-centimeter piece of ginger root, one chili pepper, herbs, spices and salt.

To begin, cut about five sausages into centimeter-thick slices, fry them in a small amount of oil and put them on a separate plate. Chop the garlic and onion, grate the ginger root and tomatoes. Fry the onion in a frying pan, pour in the tomato mixture, and bring to a boil. Add pepper, ginger, garlic, spices, salt. After the gravy boils, add the kupaty to the frying pan and simmer for ten minutes. Before serving, add finely chopped greens.

Is it possible to fry kupats in a frying pan?

Not all housewives decide to fry kupaty, because these are quite dense sausages, and therefore you can’t just cook them - it takes a lot of time for the heat to reach the middle of the kupaty. However, this does not mean that they cannot be fried.

Although most often such sausages are baked or fried over an open fire and coals. You can make them at home by simply frying them in a frying pan.

You really can’t just take and fry sausages - they will remain raw inside and unfit for consumption.

How to properly fry kupaty in a frying pan

Usually these juicy sausages are prepared in two ways - in a frying pan or in a saucepan, and then finished off in a frying pan. There is no fundamental difference - whatever is more convenient for you. We will describe both methods step by step, and you can choose the one that will be more successful for you.

First way

1. We put a convenient saucepan on the fire, where our kupats will fit.
2. Pour in enough water and turn on medium heat.
3. We wait for the liquid to boil, after which we dip the sausages into the water, piercing them in several places with a toothpick.
4. We boil the kupaty for about a couple of minutes on average: 2-3 minutes for small sausages and 4-5 minutes for large ones.
5. Remove the sausages from the water.
6. Place a frying pan on the fire, pour a little vegetable oil into it and heat it up.
7. Place the pre-cooked kupats in oil and fry on both sides until cooked.

Second way

1. Place a frying pan on the stove, pour odorless vegetable oil into it and heat it properly.
2. Place the kupaty on the hot bottom and fry on both sides until golden brown.
3. After this, pour a glass of purified hot water into the pan.
4. Simmer the sausages until fully cooked, periodically turning them from one side to the other.
5. Large kupats should be simmered under a lid, and before doing this, pierce them with a fork so that they cook better.

How long to fry kupaty in a frying pan

To prepare kupat in a frying pan of medium size and thickness, it takes no more than 15 minutes: about 5 to pre-cook the sausage in the pan and 10 to finish frying.

Small kupats can be immediately fried in a frying pan, adding a little water to it at the end, as described above in the second cooking option. In this case, the kupats are prepared as follows: first, fry for 5 minutes on both sides, and then boil for no more than 10 minutes in water in the same frying pan.

Some recipes suggest frying small kupats in vegetable oil in a frying pan - almost like deep frying. In this case, there is no need to boil the sausages - they will bake perfectly in boiling oil.

But this method is certainly not the most economical, because frying will take a lot of oil. But you can cook such sausages quite quickly - no more than 10 minutes.
