Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Tanzanian sausages — Look for sausages with a blend of Tanzanian spices, such as coriander, cumin, cardamom, and cloves, for an authentic flavor.
  • Mango chutney — Opt for a tangy and slightly spicy mango chutney to balance the richness of the sausage.

Tips & Tricks

  • If you can't find Tanzanian sausages, you can use any flavorful sausage and add Tanzanian spices, such as curry powder, to the meat mixture before grilling.
  • For an extra kick of heat, sprinkle some chili flakes on top of the sausage before adding the cabbage slaw.
  • If you prefer a sweeter slaw, you can add a tablespoon of honey or sugar to the mayonnaise dressing.

Serving advice

Serve the Zesty Zanzibar Sausage Delight with a side of crispy plantain chips and a refreshing glass of passion fruit juice for a complete Tanzanian culinary experience.

Presentation advice

Arrange the sausages diagonally on the bun, allowing the colorful cabbage slaw to peek out from the sides. Drizzle the mango chutney in a zigzag pattern over the slaw for an eye-catching presentation.
