Curried Chicken Sausage Casserole - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 teaspoon canola oil
8 fresh chicken sausage
2 onions, sliced
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1 piece fresh ginger, grated
2 granny smith apples, peeled, cored and diced
3 tablespoons indian korma curry paste or 3 teaspoons dried curry powder
2 cups chicken stock
400 g chopped tomatoes with juice
2 teaspoons cornflour
1 tablespoon warm water
2 tablespoons parsley, chopped

Preparation

Heat an ovenproof casserole or frying pan and add oil. Brown the sausages on each side until golden, about 10 minutes. Remove and place on a paper towel to absorb excess fat. Set aside.
Add onions and garlic and saute for 5 minutes until translucent. Add ginger and apple and saute for a further 3 minutes until the apple start to soften. Stir in curry paste, chicken stock and tomatoes and bring to the boil.
Add the browned sausages, bring back to the boil, cover, then place in a preheated oven at 180\u00b0C for 20 minutes.
Place cornflour into a small bowl and cover with warm water, stir until smooth. Remove casserole from the oven and stir through the cornflour. Cover and return the casserole to the oven for a further 5 minutes to thicken.
Lastly, sprinkle the casserole with chopped parsley and serve with hot mashed potato or steamed rice.
