What is Sujuk in Sauce?
Sujuk in sauce is a Turkish-style dish of spiced sujuk sausage cooked in a tomato-based sauce. The sausage is usually sliced or chopped and fried briefly before tomato is added and simmered until the sauce thickens. It makes an easy home-cooked meal and can be served at breakfast or later in the day.
The sauce takes on the sausage’s savoury, peppery flavour, while the pieces become tender; crusty bread is a natural accompaniment, and eggs can turn it into a heartier breakfast. It is relatively rich in protein and fat, with 13 g of protein per 100 g. For a lighter serving, use less sausage and let tomatoes provide more of the sauce.
