Heat the pan over medium-high heat, drizzle 1 tbsp of cooking oil. Add the sausages and brown them on both sides. Then remove the sausauges from the pan and set them aside. ( Then cut them into small bite-size pieces before adding back to the curry sauce. ) In the remaining oil, saute the onions with medium heat. Once the onions are soft and translucent, add grated garlic and ginger. Saute for a few seconds until fragrant.
Then add curry powder, tomato paste, chilli powder, crushed chillies, and plain flour. Stir everything well and toast the spices and flour for a few seconds. ( Make sure not to burn the spices. )
Pour the water in and bring it to a boil. Add stock cube, salt, pepper, and sugar. Stir it well until the sauce is smooth and thick. ( Add more water if the sauce is too thick. )
Add carrots and follow with the sausages. Bring it to simmer for 2-3 minutes. Add green peas and continue cook for another 1-2 minutes or until the sauce is thick. Serve while warm with mashed potato or rice.
- How to serve it? Serve it with mashed potatoes, plain rice, fries, wedges, or roasted potatoes for a hearty comforting meal. For a low-carb option serve it with cauliflower rice, grilled asparagus, blanched broccoli, or a choice of roasted vegetables or salad.
- What type of sausages to use? Use good-quality beef sausages or a choice of pork, turkey, or lamb sausages. Make sure to brown the sausages before adding to the curry sauce. Browning creates the best texture and flavour.
- Curry powder - I used Madras curry powder, which contains turmeric, coriander, cumin, black pepper, fennel, ginger, fenugreek, etc. As this is a fusion curry you don't have to use the exactly same curry powder. Add your favourite mild/hot curry powder or mixed spices like garam masala.
