Advantages: easy to prepare

Disadvantages: none

I have always used the sausage casserole powder to make sausage casserole. Sausage casserole is such a comfort food and so easy to prepare. I usually prepare this dish when I don't have lots of time to cook.

I have stop using the sausage casserole powder and improvised my own recipe and the taste come pretty close to the powder version.

6 sausage
1 green pepper, cubed
5 button mushroom, sliced
1 sprig of thyme leaf
1 teaspoon ginger
1 garlic clove
1 bay leaf
1 onion, chopped
1 tablespoon tomato puree
1 cup water
Salt and pepper to taste

1. Lightly brown the sausage.
2. In a separate pot, fry onions till tender, add thyme leaf.
3. Fry garlic and add ginger powder into the mixture for half a minute.
4. Add green pepper and mushroom, fry in medium heat for 3 minute.
5. Add tomato puree and water. Let mixture simmer for 1 minute.
6. Cut the browned sausage into halves and put them together into the mixture.
7, Bring it to boil and then simmer. Cover pot and let it simmer for half an hour.
8. Add salt and pepper seasoning.

Served hot with mashed potato.

I believe I have achieved the same flavour of the packet casserole without any preservatives and flavouring.
