Step 1
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add bratwurst and cook without moving for 3 minutes until the bottom edges brown.
Step 2
Turn bratwurst and cook another 3 minutes on the other side. Transfer to a plate.
Step 3
Lower heat to medium. Add sliced onion to the same skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and caramelized, about 5 minutes.
Step 4
Pour in beer and mustard, scraping up any browned bits from the pan bottom. Return bratwurst to the skillet.
Step 5
Simmer for 2 minutes, turning sausages once. Sprinkle caraway seeds over the top if using.
Step 6
Toast rolls if desired, then fill each with one bratwurst and a spoonful of onions and sauce. Serve hot.
