Zeera rice with Smokey Sausage and Black eyed Peas

The other day I went shopping at Fresh and Easy I found Smoked Turkey Sausage. I got it and thought it will be a nice snack for after school but the kids just didn't like it. So I had to make something out of it. So I made a curry/stew with this Smoked Turkey Sausage and Black eyed peas. It turned out to be soooo delicious. Kids loved it too. I served it over a bed of cumin rice

Ingredients:
  1. 8-12 oz of turkey sausage, casing removed and chopped roughly
  2. 2 cups of frozen black eyed peas or a can of black eyed peas drained
  3. 1 medium onion chopped fine
  4. 1 large or 2 medium tomatoes chopped fine
  5. 1/2 teaspoon each of ginger-garlic paste, salt, coriander powder, turmeric, madras curry powder or garam masala powder
  6. 1 tablespoon olive oil
  7. 2 bay leaves
If using frozen black eyed peas, thaw them and cook them in a pressure cooker along with the turmeric and a cup of water for 3 whistles.
In a pan heat the oil and fry the onions till they start getting browned. Add the bay leaves and ginger-garlic paste and the rest of the powders. Add the sausage and fry for some time. Add the tomatoes and stir well. Add the black eyed peas and add some more water if it gets too thick. Simmer for 10 minutes. Serve with Cumin rice
