Currywurst

No not the worst curry you've ever had, but the Germany delicacy of sausage covered in curry powder and ketchup served with some pomme frittes covered in mayo.

They are pretty tasty

Colonel Claptrap · 19-09-2019 9:52pm

Wunderbar!

HalloweenJack · 19-09-2019 9:52pm

Lovely stuff. Lidl or Aldi must be sellong the curry ketchup and the sausages. Give it a try if you haben't before.

Great stuff, they have it in Lidl at the moment but it just isn't the same as the real thing.

colm_mcm · 19-09-2019 9:55pm

Got severe food poising from one in Germany back in the early 90s. Never again.

TheValeyard · 19-09-2019 10:12pm

The ones you get in Berlin?

They are extremely tasty.

Dammit! Knew I forgot something in Lidl today

Greentopia · 19-09-2019 10:22pm

Tasty.

Not a patch on the best Wurst in that country though, the wonderful Thüringer Rostbratwürst. Has European protected designation status.

There are a lot of things I like about Germany. The food is not one of them.

Some of it is absolutely delicious, much like any other country in the world.

The stuff from Lidl is vile. Don't judge real Currywurst by that abomination.

The best Currwurst you'll get in Berlin

Or maybe in Bochum.

And you order your chips (if you so wish) as red-white, meaning with ketchup and mayo

GLaDOS · 19-09-2019 10:31pm

Tried it in Berlin, very tasty after a few beers.

Wouldn't bother trying it here. Some things are better in their home country.

You sound hungry OP

Im feeling a bit peckish myself

Curry Bouletten are delicious too .

Sharp MZ700 · 19-09-2019 10:38pm

Füttern wie bei Müttern in Cologne Best Currywürst I've tasted. Ich habe win echt hankering!

Sounds disgusting. Now German sausage with just curry sauce.. That would be absolutely delicious and better than most Irish food.

Gregor Samsa · 19-09-2019 10:44pm

Currywurst is bestwurst.

listermint · 19-09-2019 10:48pm

It's not great, let's be honest.

Ah them were the days. Hitting the imbiss for some curry wurst after a feed of helles im biergarten

Richard Hillman · 19-09-2019 10:53pm

Absolutely love them. I love the way in the Germany you can just stop off at a stand have a quick currywurst and a beer on the side of a road.

Ach! Das Currywurst ist eine... Nuisancewurst!

My 2nd favourite!

The best though is a käsekrainer, cheese sausage

Your Face · 19-09-2019 11:41pm

This is why they should have been wiped off the map after WW1.

jester77 · 19-09-2019 11:47pm

Have a read of Die Entdeckung der Currywurst to get the history... Hamburg or Berlin, always makes a good argument

It was also adapted to a movie which is OKish

Potatoeman · 19-09-2019 11:51pm

Tried it over there once, didn’t like it. The middle eastern places in the underground that do chips in kebab meat are nicer and they have great thin sausage rolls with different fillings.

JupiterKid · 19-09-2019 11:52pm

Love currywurst. Had my first one in Cologne back in the 1990s.

But then, I love bratwurst and German food generally. Unpretentious, hearty and filling.

Indeed!
I'll be in Berlin and Thuringia in a couple of weeks and I threatened my friends that I will gorge on Thüringer Rostbratwurst (discarding all my vegetarian principles), 'cause it's simply the best.

As with Berliner Currywurst don't judge the real thing by that imitation stuff they sell in Lidl's.

Currywurst is the worst version of curry you can get. Too much tomato, not enough curry. A good sausage ruined...

Delicious.

I was vegan before I lived in Germany. I blame Ze Lad tempting me with his delicious home cooking and meaty dishes.

Best people in Germany are in the East IMO-not just saying that because my guy is from there either... no ok I totally am.

They don't take themselves too seriously, honest, sincere, hard working and they have the best sense of humour. Sad that more people don't visit there as it's stunningly beautiful. The Thuringian forest is a jewel.

Love Berlin too, great city.
Enjoy your visit and food. Oh and if you haven't tried them already and you like cakes buy some of the locally made cakes from the small bakeries in Thuringia...they're amazing and not too sweet! far nicer than anything in the West because they're not from the big chains and made with love and pride by Mom and Pop businesses. Plum, and poppy seed slices are so delicious.

German beer is the best in the world.
Their food just accompanies it perfectly.
I got served dinner in a frying pan once...

OneArt · 22-09-2019 8:15pm

Can't stand currywurst. The sauce is weirdly sweet and there's way too much of it in proprtion to the sausage. Don't like their pork sausages either, just very bland. Most quick German takeaway fold is like that, though. Either very saucy, very sweet or tastes like nothing.

Some of their more traditional sausages are far better. I love the Krakauer and the Rindfleishwurst. And Flammkuchen is amazing. Better than pizza.

But you said it was a Germany delicacy. You may be thinking of goulash ?
