Potatoes come into the scene to play a significant role in Sosis Bandari. You need potatoes to add carbs to your food and make it more delicious. When the potatoes absorb tomato paste and create a sour and sweet taste while eating, you can make sure you did a good job. 

For making a good Sosis Bandari, having the same amount of potatoes and sausage is usually more preferable. However, you do not need to stick to this rule. If you like the taste and texture of potatoes, you can change the balance and adjust it to your preference. 

Tomato paste

Tomato paste is the ingredient that keeps everything together. You can buy any tomato paste from stores, but making it would be more joyful. If you want a delicious homemade Sosis Bandari, you can cut some tomatoes in half, grind them well, and put them on the heat in a big pan. The heat helps to evaporate the tomatoes’ water and will eventually give you a delicious rich paste to use in different dishes. By using fully ripe tomatoes, your paste will have a better look, so make sure to find the ripe ones before starting the process.
