Chicken & Apple Sausage Curry


This is a simple one-pot meal that is chock full of good healthy ingredients, we had a variation of this last night for dinner accompanied with a fresh salad and some home made Sourdough bread.


Ingredients:
  Spray Olive Oil
  1 medium Onion, chopped
  1/4 pound Red Bell Pepper
  1/2 pound Green Beans, cut into pieces
  2 cups diced uncooked Sweet Potato
  4 Chicken & Apple Sausages (I use Aidell’s brand), cut into pieces
  2 tsp Curry powder
  1 1/2 tsp fresh thyme (or 1/2 tsp of dried if you don’t have fresh)
  1 tsp ground Coriander
  1/8 tsp ground Cloves
  1/8 tsp ground Cayenne
  2 cups Water
  1 Tbl All-Purpose Flour.



Take a large non-stick wok or pan that has a good fitting lid, and spray it with Olive Oil.  Sauté the Onion and Bell Pepper until the Onion turns translucent.  Add Green Beans, Sweet Potato, and Sausage - continue to sauté for 3-4 minutes.  Add Spices, stirring constantly, allowing them to warm for about 1 minute.  Add water, bring to a light boil, cover and turn heat down to low.  




This should be allowed to Simmer/Steam until all the vegetables are cooked through.  Once vegetables are cooked, allow water to reduce (if not already reduced) until it just covers the bottom of the pot, add the Flour and stir for a couple minutes to thicken the sauce that forms from the water and spices.




Now remember, break the rules... do like we did last night and change up the vegetables if you like... change up the sausages (ours last night used a different type of sausage & was only 1/2 the recipe).
