Merguez Sausage

1 ½ pound ground lamb
1 teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon dried hot red pepper flakes, crushed
1 tablespoon olive oil
salt to taste
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 teaspoon finely minced garlic
1 tablespoon corn oil

Put the lamb in a mixing bowl and add the ingredients up to and including the minced garlic. Blend the mixture thoroughly by hand. To test the sausage for seasoning, shape a small portion into a patty. Cook the patty in a lightly-oiled skillet and season to taste. Shape the mixture into eight equal balls, then flatten each into a patty. Heat the oil in a heavy skillet and add the patties. You may do this in two batches, depending on the skillet size. Cook the patties for 8 minutes, turning when necessary. Drain on paper towels.
