Sunnys Currywurst With Quick Pickled Peppers And Onions And Sunnys Curry Ketchup Recipes

SUNNY'S EASY BK CURRYWURST

Steps:

• For the curry ketchup sauce: In a medium pot on medium heat, add the ketchup, honey, curry powder, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Cook while stirring until the curry powder melts into the ketchup and the red color deepens, about 5 minutes.
• For the wurst and onions. In a large pot on medium-low heat, add the wurst in 1 layer, then pour the stock over the top. Cover, bring just to a simmer and gently simmer until the wurst is cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Preheat a grill to high heat. Remove the wurst from the pot, place on the grill, drizzle with a little olive oil and cook until charred on both sides and slightly bursting, 8 to 12 minutes total. Remove to a cutting board and cover with aluminum foil. Toss the onion slices with olive oil, add to the grill and cook until charred on only one side, about 5 minutes. Remove the onions to a cutting board and cover with aluminum foil for 10 minutes. Cut each wurst link into 1/2-inch discs and chop the onion slices.
• Open the rolls by splitting them across the top, then scoop the wurst and onions into the rolls. Sprinkle with curry powder and drizzle with the curry ketchup sauce.

SUNNY'S HOMEMADE KETCHUP

Steps:

• Place the tomatoes, sugar, corn syrup, vinegar, allspice, peppercorns, garlic, onions, cinnamon stick, ginger, star anise and a pinch salt in a stockpot set over medium heat. Bring to a boil, and then lower to a light simmer. Use a potato masher or wooden spoon to mash down and break up the tomatoes as the mixture heats up. Cover and simmer over low heat for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Uncover and cook to evaporate and thicken the sauce while stirring occasionally, 45 minutes more. Remove and discard the cinnamon stick and star anise pod.
• Using an immersion blender or a stand blender, blend until smooth. Pour into an airtight container and refrigerate until cool, overnight. Taste and, if needed, add 1/2 teaspoon vinegar at a time to balance the sweetness.

SUNNY'S EASY MUSTARD PICKLED VEGGIES

Steps:

• Prepare the veggies. Peel the cucumbers and slice into 3/4-inch coins or slice lengthwise into spears. Peel and thinly slice half of the onion, then finely chop the other half. Place the cucumbers, corn, jalapeno, onion and thyme in a heat-safe jar or sealable container.
• Prepare the liquid. Heat the vinegar, honey, sugar, mustard, peppercorns, garlic, a nice pinch of salt and 1 cup water in a small pot on medium heat, stirring until the sugar and salt dissolve. Taste and adjust with more sugar or salt if needed. Bring to a simmer, then remove from the heat. Pour the hot liquid over the prepared veggies and stir. Cover and refrigerate until fully chilled. Serve chilled or room temperature.

SUNNY'S BK CURRYWURST PULL APART PIGS IN A BLANKET

Steps:

• For the sauce: Use cooking spray to coat the inside of an 8-inch springform pan. Spray the outside of a 3 1/2- to 3 3/4-inch-diameter ramekin and place it in the center of the springform pan. Set aside.
• Whisk together the ketchup, honey, curry powder and plenty of black pepper in a small saucepot. Bring to a simmer, then remove from the heat; set aside.
• For the rolls: Lightly dust your work surface and a rolling pin with flour. Unroll the puff pastry and roll out to a 14-by-9-inch rectangle. Dust the top all over with the curry powder. Using one frank as a guide, cut the pastry into strips slightly smaller than the franks, about 1 1/4-by-2 1/4 inches. Roll each frank in a piece of pastry and pinch the seam to close it.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Starting with the outer circle and allowing some space between, place each pig in a blanket vertically in the prepared springform pan in two concentric circles. Chill for 30 minutes. Bake until the tops are golden, about 35 minutes, then cover loosely with foil and bake until the inner puff pastry is baked through, about 25 minutes more. Pour the sauce in the ramekin and serve.
