Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces bratwurst sausages
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 medium onion
- 2 pieces garlic cloves
- 1 cup ketchup
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 2 tablespoons curry powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 0.5 cup water
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon chili powder (optional)
Instructions
Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic cloves.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and garlic to the pan and sauté until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
Mix in the ketchup, tomato paste, curry powder, paprika, sugar, apple cider vinegar, and water.
Simmer the sauce, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Season the sauce with salt, black pepper, and, if desired, a pinch of chili powder for extra heat.
In a separate large skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
Add the bratwurst sausages and cook, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes.
Remove the sausages from the pan and let them rest for a few minutes.
Slice the sausages into bite-sized pieces and arrange them on a serving platter.
Pour the warm curry sauce generously over the sliced sausages.
Serve immediately, with fries or a crusty bread roll if desired.
