currywurst

Curried German sausage

Currywurst is a German fast food consisting of steamed, fried pork sausage cut into slices and topped with curry ketchup—a sauce combining tomato paste with curry powder.

The dish is typically served with fries or bread rolls.

It originated in postwar Berlin and remains a beloved German street food: We grabbed currywurst from a stand near the train station.
