The ultimate retro recipe for sausages – curried Sausages. It’s the top 80’s old-fashioned recipe – Curried Sausages!

Curried Sausages

As retro as bell bottoms, pants are curried sausages. Flares are slowly making a comeback ….., as fashion-savvy people are aware.

Curried sausages have always stayed in style, in my opinion!!

If you are still deciding about this retro favorite, consider this: Curry Sausages are just sausages in gravy with a curry flavor.

If you enjoy these three things, then this recipe is for you!

What you need

This recipe is simple. It’s the same as Sausages and Gravy.

Some old recipes call for water instead of broth or stock when making curried sausages, but it needs more flavor.

Some older recipes suggest that the sausages be boiled rather than browned. This made me cry!?

How To Make It

Curried Sausages are a quick and easy dinner. Browning the sausages takes about 6-8 minutes. Making the curried sausage gravy takes only 5 minutes!

  • Brown sausages. Remove and chop into pieces if desired.
  • Saute onions and garlic — essential flavor base for a simple sauce.
  • Cook off curry powder. This little extra step brings out the curry flavor, an essential step for a sauce. I do this in my chicken curry, curried rice, and other simple recipes.
  • Cook off the flour. This will thicken the gravy.
  • While mixing, add the chicken stock in small amounts.
  • Add sausages, peas, and carrots.
  • Let the sauce simmer for a couple of minutes– it will thicken to a gravy consistency
  • Curry Sausages are NOT a traditional Indian Curry, in case you haven’t realized yet! The curry flavor may not be as complex or intense as the Indian favorites Chicken Tikka masala and butter chicken, but it is quicker and easier to make.
