For lunch today I decided between the Porcupines or the Curried Beef Sausage. The sausages won. I’ve never had this one before because I thought I wouldn’t like curried sausage but, as per usual, I was surprised in how tasty it was. Here is the skinny on the sausage.

The dish called for 9 minutes in the microwave but I stuck it in for 10 minutes neat. It came out perfectly heated through and after removing the lid, I found this…

The curry sauce had a much richer yellow colour than it appears in this photo taken with my Nokia Lumia 920. I think it must be turmeric or something like that. The sauce was not overpowering and it certainly wasn’t burn-your-arse-off spicy. It had a just a hint of kick which is good.
The sausage was cut into pieces as shown in the picture on the box. The sausage appeared to contain lean meat and was a firm but a little bland. It wasn’t completely flavourless but the curry sauce definitely is needed. Also, the little piece of sausage in the bottom left was a little rubbery. Maybe this was because it wasn’t covered in the curry sauce during cooking.
To complete the dish, the bangers are complimented with mash potato and carrots and beans – standard fare.
I’ve never been big on curried sausages but I did like this and would get it again. However, it would be a little lower on the list than some of the my favourites.
