  1. Heat olive oil in a large pan and brown sliced sausages for 5–6 minutes.

  2. Add onion and mushrooms; cook until softened and lightly golden.

  3. Stir in garlic, smoked paprika, mustard, and tomato purée; cook 1 minute.

  4. Pour in hot stock and simmer for 8–10 minutes until slightly reduced.

  5. Lower heat and stir in sour cream until the sauce is smooth and creamy.

  6. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  7. Serve over pasta, rice, or mash and finish with chopped parsley.

Notes

Use medium heat after adding sour cream to prevent curdling.

Brown sausages well at the start for deeper flavour.

Add a splash of stock if the sauce gets too thick before serving.
