If you like curries, sausages and rice,then you will like my easy Curry Sausage Risotto.
I’m not sure if it is a true Italian risotto classic, but it is one of mine.
This recipe stemmed from me not being able to boil the right amount of rice for meals, plus the rice always seemed to come out ‘blobby’. So one day I had this idea to use Arborio rice, which is the rice used to make risottos. And voila, I could finally make a great rice dish.
It is also very easy to make and only needs one pot to be cooked in – making this a great option to cook when you travel, backpack or camp or at home. And when you have limited cooking utensils available to you and really feel like cooking a curry.
Here is my easy, cheap, fast and fabulous Curry Sausage Risotto to make. Enjoy.

Ingredients for Curry Sausage Risotto
Curry Sausage Risotto is a mixture of sausages, curry spices and rice. When cooked together it makes this wonderful tasting concoction.
Equipment Required
One pot is required. It could be a saucepan or a frypan – preferably with a lid. As long as there is heat, you can cook this dish. I like to use my Sensarte non-stick frying pan skillet with lid.
You will also need a chopping board, a knife to chop ingredients, something to stir your ingredients with and a plate to serve on and spoon or fork to eat with.
Tips for Making Curry Sausage Risotto
Use Arborio Rice. Arborio rice is ideal for risotto dishes. It absorbs moisture from the dish and is not required to be cooked separately. So you can cook your meal in one pot. This makes life cleaning up easier.
