Ingredients
🌭 3 Weißwurst sausages
🍅 ¾ cup ketchup (Heinz)
🧅 1 onion, chopped
🥢 2 tablespoons soy sauce (Kikkoman)
🌶️ 2 teaspoons curry powder (Schwartz)
🍅 ¼ cup tomato sauce (Hunt's)
🍯 2 teaspoons honey
🧂 1 teaspoon salt
⚫ 1 teaspoon pepper
🛢️ 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Instructions
1- Cook the Sauce:
- Heat a small amount of vegetable oil in a small pot over medium heat.
- Add the chopped onion and sauté until it becomes translucent and slightly golden. Add a pinch of salt to facilitate moisture release.
- Stir in the ketchup, soy sauce, and tomato sauce. Blend all ingredients until well-mixed.
- Incorporate the curry powder, adding additional salt and pepper according to taste preferences.
- For a smoother sauce, use an immersion blender or a regular blender to achieve a paste-like consistency after cooking.
2- Cook the Sausages:
- Score the sausages with shallow cuts for an attractive appearance and even cooking.
- Preheat a frying pan over high heat and pour in enough vegetable oil to coat the bottom.
- Carefully lay the sausages in the hot pan, frying each side for about 5 minutes or until they reach a crispy, golden-brown finish.
- Remove the sausages from the pan and slice them into rounds on a cutting board.
3- Assemble and Serve:
- Arrange the sausage slices on a serving dish.
- Slightly reheat the curry sauce if necessary, and generously drizzle it over the sausages.
- For an extra flavor burst, sprinkle some more curry powder on top before serving.
