I fried the patties in light olive oil.. they need some oil to fry in because they are relatively lean.
So for under $2 total it makes enough easily for 2 - 4 people.
Tasty German Patties
[Serves 6-8; makes 16 thin patties]
Good job:thumb::thumb: Would you have a good German Brat, recipe?
Thanks DanB
Thanks for sharing a proven recipe. Definitely bookmarking this baby. Does the cookbook have recipe for the gravy?
Thanks for posting this. I think I will get a copy of the cookbook. The gravy sounds like it would taste like stroganoff (love the stuff) with the sour cream in it.
Which version of the German Cook book are you referring to as there are several.

From The German Cookbook -- I've made this a couple times and it is really good. Instead of tossing the beer as in Beer Brats, you actually reduce the light beer / ale and thicken it into a gravy. 2 brats in an ale gravy.
Bratwurst in Ale
INGREDIENTS
4 Bratwurst
boiling water to cover
1 tbsp butter
1 bay leaf
1 can ale or light beer
1 tbsp butter
1 tbsp minced onion
4 tsp white flour
salt and pepper
lemon
DIRECTIONS
Prick bratwurst on all sides with a fork. Place in a large skillet with a cover and add enough boiling water to cover. Cover skillet and simmer three minutes. Drain off water. Add 2 tablespoons butter to skillet and brown wurst quickly on all sides. Add bay leaf and enough ale to cover the sausages. Cover bring to a boil reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove cover and let it all boil rapidly until it is reduced by almost half. Reduce heat and simmer.
Melt butter in a small skillet and sauté minced onion until golden brown. Blend in flour and sauté slowly until mixture is the color of cocoa. Add to the simmering ale and stir in until smoothly blended and thickened. Season to taste with salt and pepper, add a little lemon and sugar if you like a sweet-sour flavor.
