hearty sausage with garlic and pistachios, Arabic

I’ve only made this recipe once, about ten years ago, and it’s incredibly delicious. I’ve just rediscovered it and don’t want it to get lost. But I’m not entirely sure about some of the ingredients: Crush the garlic and knead it with the meat, egg, breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper. Then mix the pistachios into the dough and form sausages about 15 cm long and 5 cm thick. Wrap them in aluminum foil and place in the freezer for 2 hours. Then remove the foil and fry briefly on all sides. Then simmer them in water on low heat for 1-2 hours (depending on thickness). Add a little vinegar to the water. Leave the pan uncovered. Let cool—the first few sausages probably won’t make it onto the bread.
