Currywurst (German Sausage With Curry Ketchup)
Enjoy a German classic with this fantastic Currywurst that's sure to become your new favorite comfort food!
Ingredients
German Sausage
- 4 links German sausage (bratwurst, knockwurst, etc), pre-cooked
- neutral oil (optional, for cooking if uncooked)
Curry Ketchup
- 1 tbsp neutral oil
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp curry powder (plus additional for garnish)
- 1 cup ketchup
- ½ cup dark brown sugar
- 3 tbsp white wine vinegar
- 2 tsp paprika
- 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp mustard powder
Instructions
- Add 1 tablespoon of oil to a saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and sauté for a few minutes until translucent. Lower the heat to low-medium, then add garlic and curry powder. Sauté for 1 minute.
- Add ketchup to the saucepan and keep stirring until a gentle simmer. It might splatter as the ketchup is thick. Add the remaining ingredients for the curry ketchup and stir to mix well. Let it cook for a few minutes for the flavors to meld and for the sauce to reduce a little.
- Remove the saucepan from heat and use an immersion blender to
blend. Alternatively, transfer to a blender to process. The resulting curry ketchup should still be quite thick. - Warm sausages on a skillet or cook them if they come uncooked. Cut the sausages and top with curry ketchup, plus a dusting of curry powder. Serve and enjoy!
