To Finish – Curried Sausages Dutch Oven Style
Sausages prepared this way were a staple in my household growing up. I of course being a creature of habit adjusted my mother’s recipe to suit the picky eaters in my family – hence sausage skin removal.
My other favorite additive is to add a packaged gravy mix at the end of the cooking time instead of adding flour as a thickener before adding the stock.
Hope you enjoy this recipe and are inspired to make the necessary changes so those in your family eat this sausage dish.
