German Currywurst Bavarian style

German Currywurst Bavarian Style

Here is a little story about the Currywurst. In Germany there is a little war between whom invented the Currywurst. It's North against South. The people in the North are using Bratwurst, the people in the South are using Bockwurst or smoked Bratwurst. There is no right or wrong, better or worse. I personally think, whatever you prefer will work for you. You can use either or and still can call it german Currywurst. Since I am from Bavaria, the South, I am using Bockwurst or smoked Bratwurst. Here in the States you can not find Bockwurst all the time. Bockwurst is basically like a big Wiener. Smoked Bratwurst you can find regulary. Both taste good. Ok, here we go with the recipe for the Sauce.

What you need for the Curry Sauce:

- 1 Cup Coca Cola 

         - 200 ml regular Ketchup

                               -  2 Tablespoons Worcestershire Sauce

                                                                 - 1 Tablespoon Tabasco (or less if you don't want it to spicy)

              - 1/2 Tablespoon Curry mild

                                           - 1/2 Tablespoon Curry spicy (or mild as well)

- Salt                       

                 - 3-4 Tablespoons Applesauce 

Put the Coca Cola in a stainless steel pot and let it reduce 1/3. Then add the other ingredients. Depends on how spicy you want, be careful with the Tobasco and the spicy Curry. You can always add more spice to your plate. Now that the Sauce is prepared, you can fry the Wurst (whichever you picked) so it's nice brown from all sides. When you transfer it to the plate, slice it up. Traditionally we serve French Fries with it. I make fresh from scratch because that's what we like most. Now Drizzle the Sauce over the Wurst and for the eye put a bit Curry over the Wurst and the Sauce. 

Guten Appetit
