  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 6-8 Sausages (beef, pork, lamb, venison or chicken)
  • 1 small onion, finely diced
  • 3 cloves of Garlic, crushed
  • 2 large Carrots, peeled and sliced on an angle into 1cm pieces
  • 2 cups Beef or Chicken Stock (500 ml)
  • 1 tablespoon Curry Powder
  • 1 tablespoon Tomato Paste or Sauce
  • Pinch of Salt & Pepper
  • 1 cup Frozen Peas (160 grams)
  • 1 tablespoon Cornflour

Instructions

  1. Prepare Vegetables: Finely dice the onion, crush the garlic cloves, and peel then slice the carrots diagonally into 1cm pieces. Set all aside for cooking.
  2. Brown the Sausages: Heat a large frying pan with about a tablespoon of olive oil on medium-high heat. Add the sausages and cook until browned on all sides, turning frequently to ensure even coloring. Once browned, remove from heat and set aside; sausages will finish cooking later.
  3. Sauté Vegetables: Using the same pan and oil, add the diced onion, crushed garlic, and sliced carrot. Cook over low to medium heat for approximately 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are softened and the onion turns translucent.
  4. Mix Stock and Spices: In a bowl or jug, whisk together the beef or chicken stock, curry powder, tomato paste, and a pinch of salt and pepper until well combined.
  5. Simmer Sauce: Pour the stock mixture over the softened vegetables in the pan. Increase heat to medium-high and bring to a simmer. Let it simmer for about 4 minutes to meld the flavors.
  6. Slice Sausages: While the sauce simmers, cut each sausage into 5 or 6 diagonal slices, preparing them to be added back into the sauce.
  7. Thicken Sauce: Remove about a third of a cup of the simmering liquid from the pan and place into a small bowl. Add the tablespoon of cornflour and whisk until smooth with no lumps. Pour this mixture back into the pan and stir thoroughly to combine and thicken the sauce.
  8. Combine and Finish Cooking: Add the sliced sausages and the cup of frozen peas into the pan with the thickened sauce. Cook for an additional 4 minutes or until the sauce is thickened and the sausages are fully cooked through.
  9. Serve: Remove the pan from heat and serve the curried sausages hot with mashed potatoes, rice, or fresh bread for a comforting meal.
  10. Storage: This dish can be frozen for later use. Allow to cool completely before storing in an airtight container in the freezer.

Notes

  • The sausages can be any variety including beef, pork, lamb, venison, or chicken depending on your preference.
  • Cutting the carrots on an angle increases their surface area for better cooking and presentation.
  • Do not fully cook the sausages when browning; they will finish cooking during simmering to keep them juicy.
  • Use a whisk to mix cornflour and liquid to avoid lumps and ensure a smooth sauce.
  • Serve with mashed potatoes, rice, or fresh rustic bread to soak up the flavorful sauce.
  • This recipe is freezer-friendly; store cooled leftovers in airtight containers for up to 3 months.
