BRAISED WURST SAUSAGES WITH CABBAGE, RED ONION AND APPLE SLAW

Steps:

• Put the sausages in a skillet over high heat and add 1/2-inch of water and a drizzle of oil. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium and allow the liquid to evaporate, cooking the sausages through. Once the liquid evaporates, the oil will help brown and crisp up the casings.

• While the brine reduces, combine the cabbage, red onions, and apples in a large serving bowl. Sprinkle with caraway or cumin seed, if you like the flavor.
• Pour the hot reduced brine through a strainer over the cabbage mixture in a slow stream. Evenly distribute it, then pour about 1/4 cup of oil over the salad. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and toss to combine.
• Toast the bread. In a small bowl, combine the softened butter with the herbs. Spread the mixture on the warm toast.
• Serve the sausages with the toast, slaw salad, mustard, radishes, and pickles.

CIDER-BRAISED BRATWURST WITH APPLES RECIPE - (4.3/5)

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add bratwurst and brown well on all sides, about 5 minutes total. Transfer bratwurst to a plate and set aside. Add onion to the skillet and cook, stirring often, until it begins to brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Add apple slices, thyme, salt and pepper; stir to mix. Return bratwurst to the skillet, nestling the sausages down into the apple/onion mixture. Pour cider over sausages, loosely cover the skillet with its lid or a piece of foil (so steam can escape) and reduce heat to medium-low. Braise until sausages are cooked through and apples are nearly tender, about 20 minutes. Transfer sausages to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm. Reduce the cooking liquids over medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes. To serve, arrange bratwurst on individual plates, spoon the apple mixture alongside and drizzle with the cooking liquids. Makes 4 servings.
