Meat Lite: Lentils with Caramelized Leeks and Sausage

Careful with the leeks - it's a fine line between deep golden brown and nearly burnt. 30 minutes was too long for medium-low on my burner, almost ruined them. Either should have lowered the heat or taken then off sooner.

Wechsler's Currywurst Bratwurst, a Taste of Berlin in the East Village

I agree on the cost issue - a single mass-produced sausage topped with curry ketchup should NOT cost $6, even in this economy. $3-4 might be fair... But that's not going stop me from trying one to see if it holds a candle to the real deal. I find that the type of sausage (and how it's cooked) makes or breaks the dish as much as the sauce does. Oh and any of you lushes out there, consider holding off until the day after a long, drunken night out. It's been my experience that currywurst almost never tastes better or is more satisfiying than when desperately hungover.
