Why You'll Want This Again
This dish combines the spicy warmth of curry with the savory richness of sausage. It’s full of bold flavors that are easy to enjoy any day of the week. Plus, it cooks quickly, making it perfect for busy evenings.
Step 1
Lightly heat some oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook it gently until it’s soft and translucent, but be careful not to let it brown. While the onion is cooking, mix together the tomato paste, 3 tablespoons of water, brown sugar, salt, cumin, mustard, cinnamon, cloves, and vinegar in a pot. Put it over medium heat and let it simmer for a couple of minutes. Then, stir in the cooked onions.
Step 2
In a small bowl, combine a tablespoon of vegetable oil, curry powder, Hungarian paprika, ketchup, and a cup of water. Pour this mixture into the pot with the tomato sauce and onions, and let it simmer for another two minutes to blend the flavors.
Step 3
Cook the bratwurst in a large skillet over medium heat until they’re nicely browned on all sides. Once browned, pour the curry sauce over the sausages. Turn the heat down to low and let everything cook together until the sausages are fully cooked through, about 10 minutes or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). Serve warm and enjoy!
