Ingredients
  • 6-7 medium size potatoes. cut it into small chunks
  • 1 (15 ounce) can/jar sauerkraut. drained
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped or minced
  • 1 - 2 ribs of celery, peeled and chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon caraway seeds, 1 bay leaf, 5 pepper corns and a sprig of thyme or rosemary tied in a small piece of cheesecloth
  • Note: If you have Juniper Berries in your cupboard, then add a couple to the above blend
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 - 3 Tbsps. sour cream
  • 1 lb. Polish kielbasa, cut into chunks
  • 1 Tbsp. vinegar
  • Parsley for garnish

Directions
  1. Place onions, garlic and celery into the saucepan with a splash of oil and saute over low heat until onions are light golden in colour but do not brown.
  2. Add enough water to cover the potatoes with salt and bouquet garni
  3. Allow to cook for 15 minutes then add sauerkraut and Polish kielbasa.
  4. Cook for at least 25-30 minutes or until potates are soft.
  5. Add sour cream, pepper and vinegar if needed.
  6. Garnish with chopped parsley.
  7. Note: If you are not familiar with the term "bouquet garni" it is a bundle of herbs tied into a piece of cheesecloth. This is done so that you taste the essence of the herbs without actually consuming the seeds, stems or leaves.

Sounds good, love polish food. Thanks for the great post. Have a Blessed Day!


Yum, this sounds excellent. My favorite market recently started selling an awesome Alsatian sauerkraut out of a big barrel, with juniper berries already mixed in, and I've been looking for recipes that will do it justice. Can't wait to try this one! Thanks for posting it.
