- 1 pound pork sausages
- 1 pound potatoes
- 3-4 carrots
- 1 cup peas (frozen or canned)
- 1 ½ cup beef broth (or chicken stock)
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch (UK: cornflour)
- 2 onions
- 3 garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons curry powder
- 1 teaspoon olive oil (optional, for cooking)
Heat up a little olive oil in a frying pan or skillet over medium heat. Add the sausages, and sautee for a few minutes until they are brown on all sides. Remove them from the pan, cut them into large pieces, and transfer to your slow cooker.
To the same frying pan, add diced onion and garlic. Sautee for a few minutes until the onion is soft and translucent. Add more olive oil if the onion starts sticking to the pan.
Add curry powder and tomato paste to your frying pan. Stir to combine, and sautee for about a minute, or until the mixture becomes more fragrant. Turn off the heat, and transfer this to the slow cooker.
Wash and peel the potatoes and carrots. Cut them into large bite-sized chunks.
Add the potatoes and carrots to the slow cooker along with the sausages and onions, and pour over your broth or stock. Stir to combine. Cover the crockpot with a lid, and cook for about 4-5 hours on high, or 6-8 on low.
Combine the cornstarch with a teaspoon of cold water in a small bowl to form a paste, and add this to the slow cooker. Then, add your peas and coconut milk. Stir to combine, then cover the crockpot with a lid again and allow it to cook on low for 15-30 minutes until the curry has thickened.
- Store leftovers in a refrigerator for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 6 months. Reheat, and serve the curried sausages warm.
- Serve with your favorite side dish like mashed potatoes or rice.
- Adjust the flavor of the curry by using different curry powders or pastes.
- Feel free to substitute the potatoes, carrots and peas with other vegetables that you like or have available.
