Curried Sausages with Rice

Curried sausages will surely bring back memories of your childhood.  Mum use to cook this on a regular basis when we were kids.  We use to hate the peas but she always put them in and the funny thing is, I do the same for my kids today as well.  This is easy to make for mid-week dinners and great for leftovers for the next day.

Ingredients:

• 1 packet Plain Beef Sausages (Preservative & Gluten Free)
• 1 large onion, thinly sliced
• 2 carrots, thinly sliced
• 2 garlic cloves, crushed
• 1-2 tbsp curry powder
• 2 tbsp fruit chutney
• 2 cups chicken stock
• 1 cup frozen peas

Method:

• Heat oil in large, heavy based saucepan over a medium-high heat.  Cook sausages in batched, turning for 5 to 6 minutes until browned all over.  Transfer to a large plate.
• Add onion, carrot and garlic stirring for 5 minutes or until onion has softened.  Add fruit chutney and stock.  Return sausages to pan, cover and bring to the boil.  Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer uncovered for 25 minutes or until they are cooked through and sauce thickens.
• Stir in peas and season with salt and pepper.  Cook until peas are heated through.
• Served with mashed potato or steamed rice and sprinkle with parsley.
