KITTENCAL'S SWEET AND SOUR CABBAGE AND SAUSAGE TOMATO SAUTE



Kittencal's Sweet and Sour Cabbage and Sausage Tomato Saute image

If you are searching for a really tasty dish made with sausages, then this is really good! it's my own creation, and my family loves this! Although this is a easy dish to put together, the cabbage will need some time to cook to desired tenderness, so this dish will take a couple of hours or a little less on top of the the stove. If you have some over ripe tomatoes chop them up and add into the sauce. All seasonings can be adjusted to suit taste, if you prefer a more sweeter taste, then just add in more brown sugar, you can really use how many sausages that you like, just make certain to purchase the large Italian spicy or regular, not the small breakfast pork sausages. Make certain that you use a very large frypan for this, or a Dutch oven, the cabbage takes up lots of space when cooking. I use my large electric frypan. Serve this over cooked rice. You will love this!
