REALLY EASY PORK AND SAUERKRAUT BAKE



Really Easy Pork and Sauerkraut Bake image

I threw this together when I was really craving kraut. It can be really hard to get good kraut in the UK but as I grew up Pennsylvania Dutch sometimes it is hard to ignore the calling of the kraut juice in my veins. This is really easy and reminds me of when my mother would slow cook pork and kraut for New Year's Eve. Using the lean pork steaks actually makes this pretty low fat. It goes well with mashed potatoes.

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 lean pork steak
2 cups sauerkraut
1 cup mushroom, thinly sliced

  • Lay the sliced mushrooms over the top of the steaks and then top with the sauerkraut.
  • Pour the water into the dish and then put the dish into the oven and cook for between 30 to 40 minutes depending on the thickness of your pork.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of pork: Pork shoulder is the most common cut used for pork and sauerkraut, but you can also use pork loin or pork chops. If you're using a leaner cut of pork, you may need to add some extra fat to the dish, such as bacon or butter.
  • Brown the pork before cooking: Browning the pork will help to develop its flavor and give it a nice color. You can brown the pork in a skillet over medium heat, or you can roast it in the oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for about 15 minutes.
  • Use a good quality sauerkraut: The sauerkraut is a key ingredient in this dish, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for sauerkraut that is made with fresh cabbage and has a tangy, sour flavor.
  • Add some flavorings to the sauerkraut: You can add a variety of flavorings to the sauerkraut, such as caraway seeds, juniper berries, or apples. These flavorings will help to enhance the flavor of the sauerkraut and make it more interesting.
  • Cook the pork and sauerkraut together: The pork and sauerkraut should be cooked together for at least 1 hour, or until the pork is tender and the sauerkraut is heated through. You can cook the pork and sauerkraut in a Dutch oven, a slow cooker, or even in a baking dish.

Conclusion:

Pork and sauerkraut is a classic comfort food dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. It's hearty, flavorful, and easy to make. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious pork and sauerkraut dish that your family and friends will love.
