Berlin-Style Currywurst

Method

• Fry the onion in the oil for 8 mins or until softened. Stir in the sugar, paprika, curry powder and onion powder, and cook for 3 mins more. Add the apple juice, stock, balsamic vinegar and passata, then stir through the mustard, Worcestershire sauce and ketchup.
• Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook for 15 mins to reduce by about half. Add the bicarbonate of soda, bubble for 3 mins more, then season to taste and blitz with a hand blender until smooth. Meanwhile, cook the bratwurst according to package instructions. Cut into bite-sized chunks and arrange on serving plates, then spoon generous amounts of the sauce over the top. Serve with bread, and enjoy!
