Start by preparing the curry ketchup sauce. In a medium saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.
Add the finely chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes or until the onion is translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Add the tomato paste to the saucepan and cook for 2 minutes, stirring continuously.
Pour in the canned crushed tomatoes, curry powder, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, paprika, salt, black pepper, and water.
Mix everything well and bring it to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low and let it cook for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened.
While the sauce is cooking, in a large skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the vegetarian sausages to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are browned on all sides.
Remove the sausages from the skillet and let them cool slightly. Slice them into bite-sized pieces.
Once the sauce is done, taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Serve the sliced vegetarian sausages with a generous amount of curry ketchup sauce on top.
Enjoy your homemade Vegetarian Currywurst with a side of fresh bread or fries for a complete meal.
