Currywurst to pork loin to Currywurst rolls

It has been a while since I have made any brats. I decided to make some currywurst's. Yesterday I made te sauce. This morning, I ground the spices. My plan was to venture out and buy some pork and do my weekly shop. I looked out of the window, the sleet/hail/rain had stopped the wind backed off and dare I say it the sun was shining.

I decided to go out for a coffee. It was such a lovely day that after that I went for a long beach walk. Concerned that I would run out of daylight (dark by 4.30pm) and it would get very cold I decided to turn back and visit the supermarket, go home, make the brats and have some tea. I got home later than expected and it was time to eat. I wanted a quick meal so I sprinkled the spice/herb mix that I was going to use in the sausages on a pork loin and direct grilled it. It was a stunner with the currywurst sauce. After tea I made the brats.

Tomorrow I am going to make some currywurst rolls. I poach a few of the sausages, make some dough, wrap the sausages in it (prior to that I will drizzel some curry sauce over the sausages). I will then glaze the rolled up sausage dough with more sauce and bake the sausage rolls.

They will make perfect snacks.

I have wrapped uncased sausage in bread dough and baked it. Still haven't figured out how to deal with the sausage shrinking. maybe casing it will work.

Add a little soy protein concentrate.

Hi Mark,
Don't move North, move West to Australia like thousands upon thousands of other Kiwi's have done. Come to the Sub-Tropics.
Your occupation assures instant employment.
We will talk about that next Wednesday here in Brisbane.
Cheers Mate.
Jan.

Hi Ross

I get around the shrinkage by poaching the sausages first. For my 12 yrd old niece I am doing a photo essay on making these sausages. I will post the pictures once I have finished

Well here they are:

Poached brats turned into Currwurst's in a bread roll. This is my idea of a sausage roll.

This is my idea of a sausage roll.

Geeeeze! Me too.

That's magnificent!

Perhaps our new members and beginners can now see why we make our own bread, cheese, sausage, and meat products.

Ya just can't buy that in a grocery store!

Best Wishes,
Chuckwagon
