Instructions
Wash produce before use
1
Make the mostarda
- Peel and finely chop enough onion to measure ⅓ cup [⅔ cup].
- Peel the nectarines, if desired. Cut the nectarines in half and remove the pits; cut the fruit into ½-inch pieces.
In a medium sauce pot over medium heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons ghee, butter, or oil (from your pantry) until hot but not smoking. Stir in the onion, season with salt and as much Urfa chile as you like, and cook until the onion starts to soften, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the nectarines and cook until they begin to release their juices, 1 to 2 minutes.
Add the mostarda base and ½ cup [1 cup] water and bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens and the nectarines begin to fall apart, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and season to taste with salt and pepper. Meanwhile, prepare the sausages.

Prep and cook the sausages
- Pat the sausages dry with a paper towel; prick in a few places with a fork, if desired.
In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add the sausages and cook, turning occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board to rest for 5 minutes, then cut on the diagonal into ¼-inch-thick slices. Do not clean the pan. Meanwhile, prepare the mustard greens.
3
Prep and cook the mustard greens
- Finely chop, press, or grate enough garlic to measure 1 teaspoon [2 tsp].
- Remove any coarse stems from the mustard greens; coarsely chop the greens.
In the same pan used for the sausages, if dry, add 1 to 2 tablespoons oil. Warm over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Stir in the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Working in batches if needed, add the mustard greens and cook, stirring occasionally, until just wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and season to taste with salt and pepper.
Serve
Transfer the mustard greens to individual plates and top with the sausages. Spoon the mostarda over both and serve.
