Grilled sausages with sweet and sour leeks (traditional method & Thermomix)
Description
Almost unbeatable as a feel-good dish! There's nothing like good grilled sausages to warm the heart, especially when served with tender, slightly sweet and sour vegetables. Caramelised leeks and onions go perfectly with golden sausages, and accompanied by homemade mashed potatoes, it becomes a truly comforting meal.

THERMOMIX® METHOD
-
Preparation (Thermomix)
-
(I prefer to chop the onions and leeks with a knife to preserve their texture and achieve a more tender and harmonious compote.)
-
Place 4 onions cut into large cubes and 1 leek cut into thin rounds in the bowl.
-
Add 20 g of oil and sauté for 15 minutes / 120 °C / speed 1 / reverse direction, without the measuring cup.
-
Add 4 tablespoons of tomato paste, 1 tablespoon of honey, 3 tablespoons of vinegar, 250 ml of vegetable stock, 1 tablespoon of oregano, salt and pepper.
- Simmer for 15 minutes at 100°C on speed 1 in reverse.
-
Meanwhile, grill 2 sausages in a frying pan or on a grill until they are golden brown.
- Adjust the seasoning if necessary and serve the sausages with the sweet and sour compote.
- Serve with homemade mashed potatoes.
