Ingredients

1 teaspoon fennel seeds
1 star anise, broken into pieces
1 pound ground dark-meat chicken or pork
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 1/2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 teaspoons light brown sugar
Olive oil for cooking

Steps:

In a small skillet over medium-low heat, toast fennel seeds until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer fennel and star anise to a spice grinder and grind well.
In a large bowl, combine all ingredients. Form sausage mixture into desired shape: cylinders or patties. Chill for up to 5 days, freeze for up to 3 months, or use immediately.
Brush sausages with oil and grill or broil them until browned and cooked through. Or fry them in a little oil until well browned all over.
