Sauerkraut and Noodles image

Quick, easy and low-fat vegetarian main dish for two. Packed with vitamin C, iron and fiber. I recommend using egg noodles, not pasta. The flavor will be rather bland then.

6 ounces egg noodles
1 (11 ounce) can sauerkraut
1 tablespoon oil
1 onion, minced
1 red bell pepper
1/2 teaspoon paprika
7 tablespoons apple juice (100% juice)
1 teaspoon marjoram

4 tablespoons low-fat sour cream
2 tablespoons chives or 2 tablespoons spring onions, finely sliced

Steps:

  • For noodles:.
  • Bring salted water to boil and cook according to package directions.
  • For sauerkraut:.
  • Drain sauerkraut in a colander, and with the back of a spoon squeeze it out until rather dry.
  • Optionally cut sauerkraut crosswise on a cutting board. It will be easier to mix and eat when using short noodles.
  • Deseed bell pepper and cut into 1/8 inch slices.
  • Heat oil in a pot over medium high heat and fry onion and pepper until onion in transparent, 3 minutes.
  • Add paprika, sauerkraut, apple juice and majoram. Stir to mix, reduce heat to medium low and cook covered for 5 minutes. Almost all liquid should have been absorbed. Otherwise cook open over high heat until almost dry.

  • Mix sour cream with 2/3 of the chives. Reserve rest for garnish.
  • To assemble:.
  • Mix noodles with sauerkraut. Put on individual plates and top with sour cream. Garnish with chives. ( I mince a small part of the bell pepper for additional garnish).
  • Note: If you can't get a small can of sauerkraut, the rest of a larger can will keep covered in the fridge for several days. German sauerkraut is mild. Taste yours. If it is very acidic rinse quickly in a colander under the tap.

KRAUTFLECKERL- HUNGARIAN CABBAGE AND NOODLES



Krautfleckerl- Hungarian Cabbage and Noodles image

This dish has its roots in Hungary but is also popular in Austria and Germany. My German grandmother made this using square pieces of pasta but I will post the recipe as I found it on the internet. I like to fry some chopped bacon and garlic together with the onions and cabbage. This a cheap but very good meal. Edit to say, and hope this helps for others who will try this recipe, the step of letting the cabbage sit in the salt is important, it does add a better flavor to the recipe and the texture.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 1h5m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon salt
4 cups finely shredded cabbage (or grated)
1 cup finely sliced onion
4 tablespoons butter (vegetable oil or other fat)
2 teaspoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon pepper
3 cups cooked broad egg noodles, drained
sour cream, to serve (optional)

Steps:

  • Mix the salt and cabbage together and let stand 30 minutes.
  • Squeeze out as much liquid as possible. Heat the butter in a deep skillet, add the onions, cabbage, sugar and pepper.
  • Cook over low heat, stirring frequently, until cabbage is browned, about 25/30 minutes.
  • Add the noodles and toss to blend thoroughly.
  • Note: To reduce fat, you can use just 1 tablespoon butter and saute the cabbage for a few minutes, then finish with a little chicken stock, stirring frequently.

Tips:

  • For the Noodles:
    • Use a sturdy noodle that can hold up to the sauerkraut and sauce, such as egg noodles, spaetzle, or wide egg noodles.
    • Cook the noodles according to the package directions, then drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process.
  • For the Sauerkraut:
    • Use a good-quality sauerkraut that has a tangy, sour flavor. If you can, try to find sauerkraut that is made with fresh cabbage and not canned.
    • Rinse the sauerkraut thoroughly before using it to remove any excess salt or brine.
    • For a milder flavor, you can cook the sauerkraut before adding it to the noodles.
  • For the Sauce:
    • Use a combination of butter and olive oil to cook the onion and garlic.
    • Add a splash of white wine or chicken broth to the sauce for extra flavor.
    • Season the sauce to taste with salt, pepper, and paprika.
  • For Assembly:
    • Combine the noodles, sauerkraut, and sauce in a large bowl.
    • Toss everything together until well combined.
    • Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for later.
