- 500g Boerworse sausage
- 1 Large onion chopped
- 2 Garlic cloves
- 2 Carrots - grated
- 1 Tin tomatoes
- 1tsp Curry Powder (optional)
- 1 Mild Chilli seeds removed (opt)
- to taste Salt Pepper
- 1 tsp sugar
Method
- 1- Gently fry the chopped onion until translucent, add the garlic and then add your whole boerworse sausage, fry this until browned. Take care to leave the sausage whole - the juice keeps the meat tender.
- 2- Add your curry powder and chilli (if using) and your grated carrots, cook together for a couple of minutes, if the pan starts to dry, add some water and stir well.
- 3- Add your tomatoes and sugar and reduce to a simmer, add some more water while this simmers on a low heat. The key to this is letting the flavours mingle.
- Serve the boerworse and tomato gravy with plain steamed/boiled rice. It tastes great with a tomato & onion salad. You can increase or decrease heat depending on who you are cooking for. We used to have a spicy version before little people started eating it too ;o) The addition of carrots is not authentic as far as I know, but I am ever keen to ensure there are extra veggies in there somewhere! This also keeps well in the fridge for a day or two. If using spice, it actually improves the flavour.
