Ingredients
- 2 Spinach & Feta Sausages
- 1 can chickpeas (drained and rinsed)
- 1/2 cup tomato sauce
- 1/2 cup coconut milk
- 1 tsp red chili powder
- Salt to taste
- 1 tbsp cashew masala powder
- 1 tsp vegetable bouillon paste
- 2 tbsp chopped cilantro
- 1 cup uncooked rice
Instructions
- Cook the Rice: Start by cooking 1 cup of uncooked rice according to the package instructions. Don't mess this up; undercooked or mushy rice is unacceptable.
- Prepare the Sausages: Slice the Spinach & Feta Sausages into bite-sized pieces. Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the sausage pieces until they're browned and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- Make the Base: In the same skillet, add a bit of oil if needed. Toss in the drained chickpeas and sauté for about 2-3 minutes. Add the tomato sauce, coconut milk, red chili powder, cashew masala powder, and vegetable bouillon paste. Stir well to combine.
- Simmer: Let this mixture simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. If it starts to look too thick, add a splash of water. Season with salt to taste. Remember, taste as you go. If it's bland, you'll ruin the whole dish.
- Combine: Add the browned sausage pieces back into the skillet. Mix well and let it simmer for an additional 5 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld together beautifully.
- Finish: Just before serving, stir in chopped cilantro. This isn't just for garnish; it adds a punch of freshness that you need.
- Serve: Plate the cooked rice and ladle the sausage chickpea curry over it. Make it look good; presentation matters, even at home.
There you have it. A dish that's bursting with flavors, textures, and aromas. If you followed the instructions properly, you should have a meal that's not only delicious but also impressive. Enjoy!
