Home-Made Devilled Sausages Recipe
Home-Made Devilled Sausages Recipe
Stop buying packet mixes with this fabulously easy home made devilled sausages recipe.
That’s the hardest part of breaking away from the recipe bases aisle at the supermarket – finding a good make at home substitute for our favourite meals that tastes just as good without breaking the bank. I’ve found this excellent recipe for devilled sausages that I will make for my family again and again.
You will need the following ingredients.
Let’s start with all the things you’d be asked to add to a packet mix – sausages, olive oil, an onion, a pear (!), some tomato sauce and sultanas. Now here are the recipe base ingredients – curry powder, Worcestershire sauce, ground cumin, ground coriander, corn flour and brown sugar. Not so scary when you put it like that!
This recipe is just as easy as using a packet mix, you just mix the seasonings yourself instead of opening the packet. Cook the sausages and then add your chopped onions and pear, just the same as you would normally. Combine the tomato sauce, cornflour, Worcestershire sauce, spices and brown sugar with two cups of water, then whisk to mix well. That’s the recipe base element right there.
Finally, pour it all in your big frying pan with the sultanas and allow it to simmer (covered) for ten minutes. Devilled Sausages from scratch.
Looks just the same, right? Tastes sort of similar but much nicer. And the sweet and spicy pear is the very best part!
Serve with lots of creamy mashed potato and some of your favourite steamed seasonal vegies and there you have it. A home made meal, cooked from scratch without any of the artificial colours or preservatives of a packet mix. And you can make sure it is gluten free too, if you need to.

Taste amazing ?? doubled sauce recipe, my 2 year old had 2 plates
This makes me happy to hear, Amanda! Thanks for your comment! ♥
hey what an easy thing to make. But with a twist. Rather than use tomato sauce, I used freshly picked tomatoes out of my garden, washed then cut them into 4 quarters and put them in a bowl then blended them into a wonderful tasting liquid, with added pepper and salt. well the taste was just awesome. Just a little hint for those who grow their own vegies.
