   Grind in food processor the celery, shallot, carrot and parsley. Put the sausage in mixing bowl and add the ground vegetables, mix with your hands or a spoon to combine. Shape into patties or whatever shape you want to make them, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for approximately 30 minutes before cooking.

   Add some olive oil to fry pan and heat (I used cast iron) until its nice and hot. Add the patties, let brown, flip and brown the other side. Keep the oil from the sausage you will use it to fry the onions.

3. 3

   Add the butter to the reserved oil from the sausage, now add the onions and saute on medium-medium high until they are caramelized, stirring frequently. Add the flour and stir to combine with the onions, let it cook for a minute or so, you want to cook the flour. Add 1 cup of the broth or water and stir, it will thicken, add more broth or water until it reaches the desired thickness, now add the worcestershire sauce. Place sausage patties in the gravy and let cook on med/low for 15 minutes.
