Potatoes with sauerkraut stewed in a cauldron

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to stew potatoes with sauerkraut in a cauldron? Prepare all ingredients. Sauerkraut is suitable from the supermarket or homemade. Choose potatoes according to your taste. Instead of water, meat or vegetable broth is perfect.

2. STEP 2

   

   Peel the onion. Rinse well and dry with a napkin to remove excess moisture. Cut into small pieces. Place a frying pan with vegetable oil over medium heat. Reheat well. Add chopped onion. Stirring, fry for 3-5 minutes.

3. STEP 3

   

   Squeeze the sauerkraut from the brine. Add to the fried onions. Stir and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft. Frying time depends on your taste. I like the cabbage to have a little crunch, so I cook it for about 10-15 minutes. If the cabbage is very sour, rinse it with cold water and squeeze the liquid well.

4. STEP 4

   

   Peel the potatoes and rinse well with running water. Cut into large pieces and place in a cauldron. Don’t worry if you don’t have a cauldron, you can cook it in a saucepan or deep saucepan, preferably with a thick bottom, so that the vegetables don’t burn during stewing. Pour in boiling water.

5. STEP 5

   

   Add sauerkraut and onions on top and smooth with a spoon. No need to stir.

6. STEP 6

   

   Season with ground pepper to taste. Add salt if necessary. I didn’t add it because the cabbage is well salted. If you wish, you can add a little turmeric to make the finished dish a little brighter. Set over medium heat and cover with a lid. Simmer from the moment it boils for about 10 minutes over low heat.

7. STEP 7

   

   Stir. Check to see if there is any liquid left and add more boiling water if necessary. Simmer until all ingredients are ready. The stewing time depends on the type of potato and the size of the cut pieces. I simmered for another 20-25 minutes until the potato pieces were soft.
