Curried Sausage Pilaf Recipe
Curried Sausage Pilaf Recipe
According to Wikipedia, a pilaf is a dish in which rice is cooked in a seasoned broth. So basically another one pot wonder to add to our collection of quick and easy meals!
This meal definitely ranks as one of the quickest, easiest and tastiest that I have ever made, not to mention one of the most economical. Curried sausages and rice with veggies stirred through, what’s not to love?
Here are all the ingredients to get this tasty meal on the table in less than thirty minutes.
The usual suspects – olive oil and an onion, two beef stock cubes, some curry powder, sausages, white long grain rice, mixed frozen veggies and a green onion/shallot.
Add some oil to a frying pan (one that has a lid) and brown the sausages. Then remove them from the pan and slice them into bite sized pieces. Next, saute the onion until tender, add the curry powder, then the rice and stir to combine. Add the stock cubes, boiling water and sausages, cover with the lid and let cook for ten minutes.
Then add the frozen veggies, pop the lid back on and cook for another five minutes. Nearly finished!
Take it off the heat and let it sit for five minutes while you chop up that shallot/green onion/whatever you call it. Sprinkle it over the top and serve!
Done! Dinner on the table in under 30 minutes and with only one dirty pan. Genius!
