Currywurst

Cultural Context

Currywurst originated in Berlin in the late 1940s, created by Herta Heuwer who combined German sausages with a spicy curry sauce. This dish quickly became a beloved street food, symbolizing post-war culinary innovation. Today, it's enjoyed throughout Germany and has inspired variations worldwide, including vegetarian options and different sauces, reflecting local tastes and preferences.

bratwurst

🥗Healthier: chicken sausage

💰Cheaper: pork sausage

Chicken sausage reduces fat while maintaining flavor.

curry powder

🥗Healthier: homemade spice blend

💰Cheaper: cumin and turmeric

Homemade blends can be lower in sodium.

ketchup

🥗Healthier: tomato sauce

💰Cheaper: homemade tomato puree

Tomato sauce has less sugar than commercial ketchup.

vegetable oil

🥗Healthier: olive oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Olive oil is healthier with good fats.

1

In a large pot, bring water to a boil and cook the bratwursts until they are mostly cooked through about 6 to 10 minutes.

2

In a bowl, combine the mayonnaise, curry powder, lemon juice, and sugar to make the fry-sauce. Whisk until smooth and refrigerate until needed.

3

In a saucepan over medium heat, sauté the onion in oil until translucent, then add the garlic and curry powder, cooking until fragrant.

4

Add the ketchup, vinegar, sugar, Worcestershire, mustard, and paprika. Bring the sauce to a simmer for about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, season to taste with salt and pepper. Use a blender or immersion blender to puree the sauce until it is smooth. Keep warm.

5

Preheat the barbecue to high and prepare to use the direct grilling technique.

6

Grill the bratwursts on all sides until they are plump and crisp with deep grill marks. Remove the bratwursts from the heat and slice them into bite-sized pieces. Toss the sliced sausage with the curry sauce and top with some curry powder. Serve with fresh french fries and a dollop of the fry-sauce.
