A German fast food dish consisting of steamed and fried pork sausage cut into slices and seasoned with curry powder and a tomato-based sauce. It was invented in Berlin in 1949 and became a popular street food throughout Germany.
From German 'Curry' (borrowed from English) and 'Wurst' (sausage). The dish was created by Herta Heuwer in Berlin in 1949, combining British and American influences (curry powder and ketchup) with traditional German sausage in post-war Germany.
