Czech Sauerkraut Recipe

This sauerkraut is surprisingly sweet and is traditionally with dumplings and pork roast. We’ve added a little extra flavor with bacon, but its addition is completely optional. Ingredients Needed:

• 1 onion
• 1 tablespoon vegetable or olive oil.
• 1 can or half a jar of sauerkraut
• 1 tsp caraway seeds
• ¼ cup sugar
• 3 slices bacon, crumbled into small pieces (optional)

Also, have on hand: Saucepan, knife and cutting board.

• Serves: 4-6 servings
• Prep Time: 10 minutes
• Cook Time: 30 minutes

Instructions Chop the onion into pieces. If you like onion, leave the pieces a little large. If you don’t want so much texture, chop them more finely.

Place oil in saucepan and heat over medium-low heat.

When oil is heated, sauté onions until soft.

Add the sauerkraut, including some of the juices. Also add caraway seeds.

And then add the sugar.

Bring to light boil and place lid on saucepan.

Cook on medium low heat for about 20 minutes. Just before serving, you can add the optional crumbled bacon.

It goes great with Pork Roast!
