FAQs

Can I make the sauce ahead? Yes—mix and store refrigerated up to 3 days; warm gently before adding to sausages.
Is there a non‑dairy option? Use plant‑based milk and yogurt; use vegan margarine to keep it dairy‑free.
How to reheat leftovers without drying the sauce? Reheat gently in a skillet over low heat with a splash of water or milk, stirring until saucy.
