Equipment

  • Slow cooker

Ingredients
  

  • 450 g sausages
  • 2 onions peeled and diced
  • 2 cloves garlic peeled and very finely chopped
  • 4 carrots diced in 1.5 cm pieces
  • 150 g frozen peas
  • 400 g canned tomatoes
  • 200 ml stock
  • 1 tablespoon mild curry powder
  • 1 tablespoon cornflour

Optional

  • ½ tablespoon oil for browning the sausages

Instructions
 

  • Brown the sausages in a drizzle of oil in a pan over medium heat for a few minutes. You can also brown them in your slow cooker insert if it is suitable for a hob. This adds a nicer colour and a little extra flavour, but it's not essential.
  • Add the chopped onion, garlic and carrots to the slow cooker. Stir in the curry powder, canned tomatoes and stock and mix well.
  • Stir the cornflour (cornstarch) into a couple of tablespoons of cold water and add to the slow cooker.
  • Nestle the sausages into the vegetable mixture. Cook on high for 3.5-4 hours or low for 7-8 hours.
  • Stir the frozen peas into the hot curry and serve.

Notes

  • Use whatever sausages you prefer - pork, beef, vegetarian or gluten free.
  • For a lower fat sausage curry, use turkey sausages
  • You can use chicken, beef or vegetable stock 
  • For a coconut-based slow cooker chicken curry, omit the can of tomatoes and use a can of coconut milk
  • Vary the curry powder to suit your preference
  • You  can also add potatoes to the curry at the start of the cooking time if liked, then you won't need any side dishes
