• 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon salt

Directions

Step 1

Start by preparing the curry ketchup sauce. In a medium saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the finely chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes or until the onion is translucent.

Pour in the canned crushed tomatoes, curry powder, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, paprika, salt, black pepper, and water.

Step 6

Mix everything well and bring it to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low and let it cook for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened.

Step 7

While the sauce is cooking, in a large skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat.

Step 8

Add the vegetarian sausages to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are browned on all sides.

Step 9

Remove the sausages from the skillet and let them cool slightly. Slice them into bite-sized pieces.

Once the sauce is done, taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
