This is good used with Bavarian sauerkraut for a sweeter taste. Put in crock pot and forget about it. My mother made this first then passed the recipe to me. It originated from American Profile Magazine. Ingredients:
2 (14 ounce) cans sauerkraut |
1 large onion (chopped) |
2 garlic cloves (crushed) |
3/4 cup brown sugar |
1 bay leaf |
1 (1 lb) package kielbasa, cut into 1 to 2 inch pieces |
4 -6 potatoes, peeled and cut into 1 inch squares |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°. I put mine in the crockpot.
2. Drain and rinse sauerkraut in a colander.
3. Mix with all the ingredients in a bowl and pour into large casserole dish (or put in crockpot) Cover and bake for 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours.
4. Or let cook in crockpot on low for several hours until potatoes are tender. I usually add 1 can of water and mix well. Add more water accordingly throughout the day.
5. I let mine cook all day on low.
6. You can also try substituting the brown sugar with applesauce and apple chunks (1/2 cup each) for color and texture.
7. I also use the Bavarian kraut-this gives this dish a sweeter flavor-even my kids like it.
