Tips & Tricks
- For extra flavor, you can marinate the sausages in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, and herbs for a few hours before grilling.
- If you prefer a spicier sauce, add a pinch of chili flakes or a dash of hot sauce to the tomato sauce.
- Serve the sausages in a crusty bread roll with caramelized onions and mustard for a classic Aussie sausage roll experience.
- If you don't have a grill, you can also cook the sausages on a stovetop grill pan or under the broiler in the oven.
- Leftover sausages and sauce can be refrigerated and enjoyed the next day. They can be reheated on the grill or stovetop for a quick and delicious meal.
Serving advice
Serve the grilled sausages with a side of crusty bread, coleslaw, and a fresh green salad. Offer the tangy tomato sauce on the side for dipping or drizzling over the sausages.
Presentation advice
Arrange the grilled sausages on a platter and garnish with fresh herbs, such as parsley or chives, for a pop of color. Serve the tangy tomato sauce in a small bowl alongside the sausages.
