Ingredients

 

• 600 g sausages pork or beef
• 1 small onion finely diced
• 1 stick of celery finely diced
• 1 small carrot finely diced
• 3 cloves garlic minced
• 1 tbsp curry powder adjust to taste
• 2 tbsp cornstarch or flour for a non-gluten-free option
• 2 cups chicken stock or 2 cups water + 2 tsp chicken stock powder
• 1 cup peas
• 3 tbsp cream
• Olive oil for cooking
• Salt & cracked black pepper to taste
• Optional: 1 peeled & grated apple adds a touch of sweetness

Instructions

 

• 1️⃣ Par Cook Sausages: Bring a pot of water to a boil, add sausages, and simmer for 5 minutes to remove excess fat. Let them cool slightly, then slice diagonally. If they have casings, remove them before slicing.
• 2️⃣ Sauté Vegetables: Heat a heavy-based pan with a thin layer of olive oil. Add the diced onion, celery, carrot, and minced garlic. Sauté over moderate heat until the onions have softened.
• 3️⃣ Add Curry Powder & Thickener: Stir in the curry powder and let it cook for 1 minute to release its flavors. Add the cornstarch (or flour) and stir for another 2 minutes over low heat.
• 4️⃣ Make the Sauce: Gradually pour in the chicken stock (or water with stock powder), stirring constantly to avoid lumps.
• 5️⃣ Simmer & Cook: Add the sliced sausages and, if using, the grated apple. Let the mixture simmer uncovered for 10-15 minutes, allowing the flavours to meld.
• 6️⃣ Final Touches: Stir in the peas and cream. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
• 7️⃣ Serve: Ladle the curried sausages into bowls and serve with fluffy white rice. For extra flavor and presentation, sprinkle a dash of curry powder on top.
