Fried Vermicilli With Eckrich Sausage


This recipe of my mom's has been a family favorite for years.  Was one of my dad's favorites and my husband, son and brother all ask for a good ole skillet of vermicilli often and it's easy to make.


With a medium high temperature, pour just enough oil to cover the bottom of your skillet, then place a 16 oz. package of vermicilli in skillet.


Brown vermicilli while shuffling the vermicilli with a spatula.  After vermicilli is throughly browned, reduce temperature to medium low and add 2 large cans of whole tomatoes and minced garlic.  With spatula, cut up whole tomatoes in halves or quarters.  Place lid and let simmer for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.


While vermicilli is simmering, brown your sliced eckrich sausage in pan.  


When vermicilli is ready (when soft) add eckrich sausage and simmer on low for about 5 minutes.  If vermicilli is a little dry, add a little water.




Enjoy with salad and garlic bread or all by itself.  You can also substitute fried wienies or fajhita meat in place of eckrich sausage.

1 - 16 oz. Bag of Vermicillli
