01

Step 1

Start by mixing together the ketchup, brown sugar, vinegar, mustard, cinnamon, and cloves in a small saucepan. Warm the sauce over low heat, stirring now and then, until it’s heated through—this usually takes about 5 minutes. Then, add the little sausages to the pan. Keep everything on low and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sausages are nicely heated all the way through, which should take around 25 minutes. Once they're warm and coated in that tasty sauce, they're ready to enjoy!

How to serve
