Description

These healthier curried sausages, made with cauliflower, carrots, and peas in a mild curry sauce, are a kid-friendly favourite. Budget-friendly and perfect for a quick midweek meal, they taste even better the next day!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 500g / 1lb lean beef sausages
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 onion, halved and sliced
  • 3-4 cups (360g/ 13 oz) cauliflower, cut into small florets
  • 2 carrots, peeled, sliced on diagonal
  • 2 tablespoons curry powder
  • 2 1/2 cups chicken stock
  • 2 tablespoons apricot jam
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons tapioca flour/ cornflour
  • 1 cup frozen peas

Instructions

  1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sausages, turning them to brown on all sides. Remove and set aside. Keep 1 tablespoon of fat in the skillet (optional: slice sausages diagonally into pieces).
  2. In the same skillet, add the garlic and onion. Cook for 2 minutes until translucent.
  3. Add the carrots and cauliflower. Cook for 3-4 minutes to soften. Stir in the curry powder and cook for 30 seconds to release the flavor.
  4. Return the sausages to the pan. Add the jam and stock. Simmer on low heat for 15 minutes.
  5. In a small bowl, mix the flour with 1 tablespoon of water until dissolved.
  6. Stir in the peas and pour the slurry over the curry. Season with salt and pepper, then cook for 2 more minutes until the peas are tender and the sauce thickens into a gravy-like consistency.
  7. Serve the curry over mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles.

Notes

  • I used Macro extra lean grass-fed beef sausages.*
  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days in an airtight container. Reheat with a splash of water or broth on the stove. Freeze for up to 3 months.
