Dice 500 grams of onions and 3 cloves of garlic.

Heat oil in a saucepan and add the diced garlic, cooking briefly to avoid bitterness.

Add 2/3 cup of brown sugar to the pan to caramelize.

Once caramelized, add 3 cans of diced tomatoes to the mixture.

Pour in 1 cup of apple cider vinegar and bring the mixture to a boil.

Prepare spices: measure out 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of ground ginger, 1 tablespoon of mustard seeds, 2 star anise, 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon, 1 teaspoon of allspice, 1 teaspoon of black pepper, and 1 teaspoon of curry powder.

Add the spice mix to the boiling tomato sauce and stir well.

Cut sausages partially through, then fry them in a pan for about 30 minutes, turning occasionally.

While sausages are frying, strain the sauce through a sieve to remove solids.

Add 1 can of tomato paste to thicken the sauce, and if needed, add a second can.

Stir in 2 teaspoons of lemon juice and 1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce to the sauce.

Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with more salt if necessary.

Allow the sauce to boil until thickened to a ketchup-like consistency.

Serve the fried sausages on a plate, pour the sauce over them, and sprinkle with additional curry powder.

Serve with fries on the side, optionally with mayonnaise.
