Sausage

Method

Preparing the Curry Sauce

  1. 1

    Sauté the Aromatics

    In a medium saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

  2. 2

    Build the Sauce

    Add the tomato paste, curry powder, paprika, honey (or sugar), and apple cider vinegar to the saucepan. Stir well to combine and cook for about 2 minutes.

  3. 3

    Simmer the Sauce

    Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a simmer. Season with salt and black pepper. Reduce heat and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened.

Cooking the Sausages

  1. 4

    Cook the Sausages

    While the sauce simmers, cook the bratwurst or sausage links according to package instructions. This can be done by grilling, pan-frying, or baking until fully cooked and browned.

  2. 5

    Slice the Sausages

    Once cooked, let sausages rest for a few minutes before slicing them into bite-sized pieces.

Preparing the Fries

  1. 6

    Cook the Fries

    Prepare the frozen French fries according to the package instructions, either by baking or frying until crispy and golden brown.

Making the Mayo Dip

  1. 7

    Mix the Mayo

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, lemon juice, and garlic powder. Mix well to create a flavorful dipping sauce.

Assembling the Dish

  1. 8

    Serve Up!

    On a serving plate, arrange a generous portion of fries. Top with sliced sausages and drizzle with the curry sauce. Serve with a side of garlic mayo for dipping.
