The BEST Keto Curried Sausages
If I had a dollar for all the times, I have been asked for a recipe for keto curried sausages… 🤣 I didn’t really get it, but hey when I finally got around to creating one I really enjoyed it, and the recipe.
To me curried sausages is a very old-fashioned recipe. I remember my mum making it for the family when I was very little. I had no idea it was that popular nowadays.
Anyway, let’s have a look at what I have created. Trust me I have dialled up the old-school version. A keto curried sausage recipe has no cornflour obviously, but I have managed to create a perfect keto curry gravy. It is thick silky and so delicious!
What you need to make Keto Curried Sausages
These curried sausages are super easy to make. All the ingredients are easily found in your local supermarket.
I have given you an option for thickeners. Choose between xanthan gum and gelatin, either way you go both are now available in the supermarket.
Pictures is Keens Curry Powder but if you love Baba’s Meat Curry and/or have a good spice drawer at home try my Malaysian Meat Curry Powder recipe. As good if not better than Baba’s and soooooo easy to make!
Here is all you need to make it.
How to make Keto Curried Sausages
For convenience I have included both a conventional method and how to make keto curried sausages with a Thermomix. Either way you do it the recipe is fantastic. The method included with the Thermomix doesn’t involve any extra steps but still results in a very creamy and delicious curry sauce.
Sauté the onion, in the butter with curry powder, lemongrass paste, ginger and onion. Once the onion is soft remove from the pan.
Fry the sausages until almost cooked through. By not frying until they are done this will keep the moist and succulent. They will continue to cook in the gravy once added back to the pan (or Thermomix). Sausages can be steamed in the Thermomix, if preferred.
Add 1 cup of the stock and xanthan gum (or gelatin) to the pan and cook until thick. Add remaining stock, tomatoes and coconut cream. Return the onions and sausages to the pan and cook until thick.
Serve with Creamy Cauliflower Mash fresh parsley or coriander leaves.
FAQs and Hot Tips
Can I freeze it? Absolutely! Spoon into individual portions and freeze in an airtight container for a freezer-friendly keto meal.
Can I make keto vegan curried sausages? Sure can! Simply substitute vegan sausages, seitan or nutmeat for the sausages. Use a vegetable broth and xanthan gum for the thickener.
To cook curried sausages in the Instant Pot just add all the ingredients to the pot and give a good stir Seal the lid and cook on Pressure/5 minutes/natural release. Stir to evenly distribute the xanthan gum and thin with extra stock or water, if needed.
Add any vegetables you prefer to the curry. Zucchini or yellow squash would be a delicious choice for this very tasty low carb sausage dinner.

Keto Curried Sausages
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon butter or olive oil

- 600 g low carb sausages
- 2 cups beef broth/stock click for recipe
- ½ teaspoon xanthan gum or 1 tbsp beef gelatin
- 1/4 cup crushed tomatoes
- 1/4 cup coconut cream
- Salt and pepper to taste
TO SERVE
- Cauliflower Mash
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley finely chopped
Instructions
CONVENTIONAL METHOD
- Heat butter in a large frying over medium heat. Add garlic, ginger, lemongrass paste, curry powder, and onion and sauté until onion is translucent. Remove from the heat and set aside.
- In the same pan cook sausages until golden and cooked through. Remove the sausages from the pan and cut into smaller pieces or slices, as preferred and add to onion mixture.
- Add 1 cup of the bone broth and xanthan gum (or gelatin) and cook whisking until the gravy thickens.
- Add remaining bone broth tomatoes and coconut cream cook stirring until gravy thickens. Add sausages/onion mixture and cook a further 1-2 minutes until heated through.
- Season to taste. Serve sausages with cauliflower mash and garnish with fresh herbs.
THERMAL METHOD
- Add the butter to the mixer bowl and heat 90 sec/100°C/stir. Add garlic, ginger, lemongrass paste, curry powder and onion to the mixer bowl and chop 3 sec/speed 5. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and cook 5 min/100°C/stir/MC off. Leave in the bowl to cool for 5 minutes.
- Heat a large frying pan over moderate heat Add the sausages and the sausage and cook until golden and cooked through. Remove the sausages from the pan and cut into smaller pieces or slices, as preferred.
- Add 1 cup of bone broth and xanthan gum (or gelatin) into the mixer bowl and cook 4 min/100°C/speed 3.
- Add remaining cup of broth, tomatoes and coconut cream. Cook 2 min/100°C/speed 3. Add sausages to mixer and stir to cover. Cook for a further 4 min/100°C/reverse/stir.
- Season to taste. Serve sausages with cauliflower mash and garnish with fresh herbs.
Notes
- Any vegetables of choice can be added to the curry.
- For a delicious keto vegan option simply replace the sausages for vegan sausages and swap the broth for a vegetable broth.
- Always use xanthan gum sparingly as it can leave a slimy mouth feel. If the gravy is slimy simply add more broth to thin it out.
- Beef, pork or lamb sausaged can be used.
- Store in the fridge for up to 4 days or freeze in individual portions.

Amazing! We have new fave on our menu. Cooked with thermo method and xanthan gum.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Got to love how the thermi makes this even easier too. Thanks, Cherry, for giving it a try and letting us know how it went. I am so happy you have a new fave to enjoy x.
Wow what a taste sensation. I haven’t had curried sausages in years so this was a winning dish for me and my family. I used xanthum gum as my thickener and cooked conventional method. I cooked the sausages first as I had my 2 year old grandson with me and he happily ate a plain sausage with cauliflower mash. My daughter in law loved it too. She took the rest home for lunch and it got a huge thumbs up from her. I will be making this on a regular basis. It’s a truly great recipe.
Yay! Thanks for letting us know it was a winner Lynda. And a big thank you for letting us know how it went with the family. Always love to hear when you have a win in the kitchen xx.
These are very delicious sausages. Spicy, but not too hot so all members of the family enjoyed them. Tried to thicken with the gelatin, but it didn’t work, so used the xanthan gum and it was great. Thanks
So glad you enjoyed them Vicki. The gelatin does take a bit longer to thicken but xanthan gum works incredibly good with this recipe.
Hubby said not enough stars for the rating so that in itself has to tell you how much he enjoyed it he loves curried sausages the sauce is unbelievable so yummy I will be making this again but using either chicken or prawns as the protein
Yes I too think a good curry prawns and cauliflower rice would be fabulous! Thanks for the feedback and the few extra stars from the hubster *******
Very tasty 😋
Wow this was so easy and super delicious. I doubled the recipe as I wanted to make it for lunches or dinners this week while I’m working. Cooked sausages in frypan, made sauce in the thermomix and then added sauce to frypan and let it simmer for 10 minutes. Will definitely be making again that’s for sure. Hubby loved it too!!
Thanks Megan, your a gem xx
Absolutely delicious!! Was super tasty and full of flavor,
Best curried sausages I have ever had. More delicious than tranditional curried sausages.
I forgot beef stock (woops!)
I had chicken stock in my pantry and so used that instead and was still soooo good!
Can’t wait to make it again.
We had this for dinner during the week. 4yr old grandson went back for seconds. Will definitely be making again this week and will double recipe so we have leftovers for lunch. Definitely will be cooking this one over and over.
That is so awesome Narelle. I love it when a recipe is enjoyed by the whole family.
made this again tonight but used prawns instead of sausages once again it was so yummy and once again hand hubby gives it the big thumbs up have leftovers for hubby’s lunch tomorrow
I swore I would never make curried sausages when I left home. Mum (god bless her) made them so memorable that I didn’t want to eat them again. EVER.
Stage left, Megan Ellam. These are soooo darn good that I’ve made them numerous times & my husband loves them.
Thank you Megan. Another excellent eternal recipe for the collection 🥰
