Ingredients

  • 4 spoon Oil, vegetable oil, canola

  • 500 g Meat, pork, ribs

  • 1 piece Onion, raw

  • 600 g Sauerkraut

  • 3 pods Garlic, fresh

  • 2 piece Spices, bay (leaves)

  • 8 pieces Spices, pepper, black

  • 0.75 teaspoons Salt, table

  • pieces Water

Steps

  1. Peel and finely chop the onion and garlic. Taste the sauerkraut. If it seems too sour, quickly rinse it in a colander under cold running water. In a large pot, heat the oil and brown the pieces of smoked ribs. Remove the browned ribs from the pot and set aside on a plate.

  2. Add the onion to the pot and sauté it, stirring until it becomes translucent. Season the onion with a pinch of salt while sautéing. Then return the ribs to the pot and add the sauerkraut and garlic. Sauté everything together for another 2 minutes, then pour in 3 to 4 dl of hot liquid. Add a bay leaf and peppercorns, and season with salt to taste. Once the sauerkraut comes to a boil, reduce the heat, cover the pot, and simmer until the sauerkraut is completely tender (about 45 minutes). Stir the ingredients in the pot occasionally during cooking. Add more liquid if needed.

  3. Serve the sauerkraut on plates first, then add the pieces of ribs. Serve the prepared dish with bread.
