Add 1 cup of ketchup to a small saucepan.

Add 1 tbsp of curry powder, 1 tbsp of Worcestershire sauce, 1 tsp of chili powder, 1/2 tsp of garlic powder, and 1/2 tsp of onion powder to the saucepan.

Place the pot on the stove over medium low heat and stir until everything is combined.

Gradually pour in 1/4 cup of chicken broth, continuously stirring until fully mixed in.

Cutting on a diagonal, carefully score thin slices on a pack of bratwurst, being careful not to cut all the way through.

Lay out some frozen French fries on a parchment paper lined tray and bake the French fries according to the packaging directions.

Remove the French fries halfway through baking and toss to flip the fries to cook the other side and return them to the oven to finish baking.

Pour 1 tbsp of vegetable oil in a frying pan and heat the oil over medium heat.

Add all the scored bratwurst to the pan and heat over medium, flipping them to ensure all sides get evenly browned.

Remove the heated bratwurst and place on a paper towel lined plate to drain.

Take the French fries out of the oven when they are done baking.

Finish fully cutting the bratwurst into the thin scored slices.

Arrange all the sliced bratwurst on one half of a serving platter.

Spoon some of the curry ketchup sauce all over the bratwurst.

Place the French fries on the other side of the platter and enjoy.
