Homemade Sausage Patties

1. 1

   Cook onion in 2 tablespoons oil in a small heavy skillet over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until softened and beginning to brown, 8 to 10 minutes.

2. 2

   Cool 10 minutes.

3. 3

   While onions are cooling, stir together bread crumbs and milk in a large bowl and let stand until crumbs absorb milk.

4. 4

   Add onions and remaining ingredients to crumb mixture and stir with a fork until blended well.

5. 5

   Preheat oven to 250F.

6. 6

   Form sausage mixture into 3-inch patties (about 1/2 inch thick) with dampened hands and arrange on a wax-paper-lined tray.

7. 7

   Heat remaining 1/2 teaspoon oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then cook patties in 3 batches, turning once, until browned and just cooked through, 4 to 6 minutes per batch.

8. 8

   Drain patties briefly on paper towels as cooked, then transfer to a shallow baking pan and keep warm, covered with foil, in oven while cooking remaining batches.
