Paying Homage to a Wimpy Classic
Unfortunately Wimpy may not be on the corner of everyone’s high streets but it still delivers some fantastic treats. One of Wimpy’s famous items, was the Bender in A Bun – a frankfurter, sliced part-way along its length so it could be formed into a circle and placed in a burger bun with cheese and ketchup. It’s still remembered by many, fondly and with a wry smile. Taking inspiration from this icon of the 80s English fast food scene this is the Bender re-made but using a Bratwurst and flavoured like a Currywurst.
Adding in a Currywurst Flare
We teamed up with Comedian and Cook, Snack Hacker George Egg, and challenged him with the task of creating quick and easy yet delicious recipes, that we at The Sausage Man have not seen before. He has yet again triumphed bringing us a currywurst style bender in a bun. Watch George in action make this mouth-watering recipe and scroll down to get the full ingredients and method after.
Berlin Flavours transform a classic
Adding the flavours of a Berlin currywurst is ingenious. In fact, we believe this may transform any dish. George makes a quick and simple curry sauce compiled of ketchup, mustard, siracha, curry powder and browning sauce. However an alternative to this would be to simply use a ready made curry ketchup and add a sprinkle of curry powder on top. Either way, the currywurst flavours really transform this classic Bender in a Bun
Recreated in minutes
In the time it takes to cook a Bratwurst you will have recreated a wimpy classic. So, that’s around 6 minutes you have to wait until you can devour this amazing bender in a bun with a currywurst twist. But the twists do not have to stop there, you could also have a spicy version or full German theme and incorporate Sauerkraut into the mix. But lets start with George Eggs currywurst version, give that a try and then see what you can come up with next!
