German Currywurst

This iconic street food originated in Berlin and is wildly popular across Germany. Seek out finely ground pork German bratwurst (preferably pre-cooked) for the most authentic taste and texture. The curry ketchup can be made up to several days in advance.

Instructions

  1. Turn your grill to medium-hot. Place the brats over direct heat and turn them frequently. Cook until lightly browned all over. Remove from grill.
  2. Meanwhile, in a medium-sized saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions and sauté them until they are softened, about 4 to 5 minutes.
  3. Add the garlic and sauté until soft and aromatic, about 30 seconds longer.
  4. Stir in the ketchup and bring to a slight simmer.
  5. Add the curry powder, white wine vinegar, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, salt, and mustard. Let simmer for about 5 minutes, the sauce should thicken slightly. Remove from heat, and if desired, purée the sauce with an immersion blender.
  6. Slice each bratwurst into 6 to 8 bite-size pieces. Stir the cut bratwurst into the curry ketchup.
  7. Place the french fries in a small basket or bowl (lined with parchment paper, if desired), and then spoon about 1 cup of the currywurst over the fries. Dust with a small amount of curry powder. Serve at once.

  • Finding the right sausage is critical in achieving authentic currywurst. We purchase ours from Stiglmeier and they are simply incredible. Check with your local butcher, chances are he/she will carry it. Remember, finely ground and pre-cooked is best. 
  • You can make the French fries ahead of time (but not too many hours in advance). Keep them warm in a 275°F oven. 
  • The curry ketchup sauce can be made several days in advance. Reheat over medium heat until simmering. If the sauce is too thick (it should be slightly thicker than ketchup), thin it with a little water. 
  • Leftovers will keep covered in the fridge for up to 5 days.
