Devilled Sausages



As you know, I do not like using packet mixes or bottled bases. Who knows what's in those things!
So here's an easy recipe for devilled sausages...no packet required!

Serves 4

Get This -
  • 500g beef or pork sausages
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 125ml water
  • 2 onions, finely sliced
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon mustard
  • ¼ tsp cayenne pepper (or to taste)
  • 1 x 400g can diced tomatoes
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • fresh parsley

Do This -
  1. Heat oil in pan and brown sausages until cooked.
  2. Remove sausages and chop into chunks.
  3. Fry onions in the same pan until soft.
  4. Combine all other ingredients with the water to make a sauce. Add to sausages and onions and stir until sauce begins to boil then reduce heat to a simmer. Stir occasionally and cook for at least 10 mins, but the longer the better. I like at least an hour.
  5. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley or your favourite herb. Serve with mashed potato or sweet potato, or on a bed of steamed rice with vegetables.

This recipe is from http://allrecipes.co.uk/ with a few tweaks.
