Sausage And Potato Stir Fry



This is a recipe filled with happy childhood memories.  Sausages were scarce when growing up and it was something of a luxury.  My father was always busy working in the hospital but if he ever gets the chance to purchase some sausages he would sometimes cook them himself. This is one recipe I remember being made.
Some softened onions, potatoes, some chilies and spicy potatoes. I posted this recipe a long time ago but I  wanted to change the photo so this is a repost of an old recipe. We don't get fresh sausages over here, the processed kind which is not very good for you when eaten too often.

Recipe: Sausage and potato stir fry

Serves 4


425g potatoes, peeled and cut into bite-size cubes
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
2-3 green chilies, slit in half or 1/4 scotch bonnet, roughly chopped
8-10 curry leaves
5-6 sausages, ( I like the Gill's Garlic sausages, but you can use any sausage you like)
2 plum tomatoes, chopped
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
salt to taste
oil ( about 2-3 tbsp)

Boil the potatoes till cooked through. Drain and set aside.

If using Gill's Sausages, remove the casing first. Cut the sausages into bite-size pieces.  Set aside.

Heat a frying pan with oil, add the onions and cook to soften and slightly caramelize them. Add in curry leaves, garlic, and chilies. Stir in the sausages and stir fry to slightly colour them.

Stir-fry for 1-2  minutes, then add the potatoes and tomatoes. Stir in pepper and pinch of salt  Add in about 1/4 cup water and cover and cook for about 10 minutes. Give it a stir now and then. Taste, and adjust salt and pepper. 

Switch off and serve with some crusty bread.
