Not quite tapas chorizo in red wine

This is heavily inspired by - but in no way based on! - one of my favourite tapas dishes, namely chorizo in red wine reduction.

Ingredients
2 venison sausages, cut into 3/4" chunks
2tsp diced garlic (I used Very Lazy Garlic)
1tbsp balsamic vinegar
Spritz of olive oil

Method
  1. Spritz a heavy-based frying pan with oil, add garlic, and put on a high heat
  2. When the oil is hot but not smoking, sear the sausage chunks, then turn the heat down to medium
  3. Cook the sausages for 10-15 minutes, turning regularly.
  4. When the sausage chunks are cooked, add the balsamic vinegar and toss the sausage chunks in it
  5. Turn the heat down and simmer until the balsamic vinegar forms a syrup
  6. Serve immediately

  1. Even though I'm not going to eat this (what with it being sausage...) you've really made me want tapas! :)

  2. Oooh, what are you up to 4 or 5 March? I'm back and have a car if you wanted to meet up. There's at least one tapas restaurant in town...
