While I lived on Reunion Island ( La Reunion) I came across this local dish. It was usually prepared with French sausage which is generally a pork sausage. I've also had it with smoked beef sausage, which is the type of sausage I use in this recipe. The Reunionait version of this recipe seemed to always include piment, hot pepper, of which I did not add to this post because that's not the way I prepare it, but more often than not this dish in La Reunion has piment. I thoroughly enjoyed this dish. It became one of my favorites.

Ingredients:
28 oz (800g) smoked sausage
4 large tomatoes (diced)
1 onion (minced)
4 cloves garlic (minced)

First – cook onions and garlic in a little bit of oil
Second – spoon onions and garlic to the edges then add sausage in the middle
Third – after the sausage has been seared mix them together with onions and garlic
Fourth – add tomatoes and seasonings
Fifth – cover and set the heat to low in order to simmer for 10 minutes or so
Sixth – uncover and simmer until the sauce thicken up some
Seventh – let cool for a bit before dishing up
Eighth – dish up, bless it and it’s ready to eat!
