Potato & Sauerkraut Bake image

Inspired by food I grew up eating. The sauerkraut and fennel makes this potato dish a very European-tasting side that goes great with sausage. Just be sure to squeeze out all that liquid from the kraut.

Time 1h30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 tablespoons butter
6 red potatoes, cut into chunks
1 onion, chopped
1/2 fennel bulb, chopped
3 celery ribs, chopped
4 carrots, peeled and chopped
2 cups sauerkraut, very WELL-DRAINED
fresh cracked pepper
sea salt, to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Heat the butter in a heavy pot over medium heat. Add the potatoes, and brown them a bit for 10 minutes, while sitrring every now and then. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Add the onion, fennel, celery and carrots to the pot; stir and cook for 5 minutes longer. I add just a bit of salt & pepper here too.
  • Remove from heat and stir in the sauerkraut. Tranfer mixture to a greased or sprayed 9x13" casserole dish.
  • Bake for one hour, and stir every 15 minutes so everything gets nicely browned and nothing burns. I add a small bit of salt and pepper every time I stir as well.
  • Remove from oven and let cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.
