Whenever I go to a German Biergarten, I always opt for the currywurst. It combines the best of two of my favorites, sausage and curry. With the current pandemic, I have not been to any Biergartens or bars and have been missing bar foods tremendously. So, I opted for the next best thing, and that is to make them myself. Pair this with some awesome, homemade fries, and you got a real bar experience at home. Super simple recipe and it does not take long at all to cook. Try yours today!
