  5. Place the sausages in the pot and brown on all sides.

  7. Remove and discard the garlic.
  8. Stir in the tomato paste and cook for one minute.

Sunday gravy:

  1. Use whatever meat you have on hand. Often, our grocery store has a section in the meat department of mark downs. Stuff that’s still good, but needs to be used soon. I’ll throw in a combination of whatever I can find, steaks, beef or pork ribs, stew pieces. No matter the combination, it ends up delicious in the end!
