Instructions

Step 1: Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 8 pork sausages (about 500g) and brown them on all sides for 6-8 minutes. Remove sausages and set aside.
Step 2: In the same skillet, add 1 large diced onion (200g) and sauté for 4-5 minutes until softened and translucent. Add 3 minced garlic cloves and 2 tbsp curry powder, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
Step 3: Stir in 2 tbsp tomato paste and cook for another 2 minutes to deepen the flavor.
Step 4: Transfer the onion and spice mixture to a slow cooker. Add the browned sausages back in along with 2 cups (480ml) beef broth, 2 peeled and diced medium potatoes (300g), and 2 sliced medium carrots (150g).
Step 5: Season with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until sausages are cooked through and vegetables are tender.
Step 6: Before serving, taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve the curried sausage stew hot with steamed rice or crusty bread.
