POLISH SAUSAGE AND SAUERKRAUT CASSEROLE (KAPUSTA)



Polish Sausage and Sauerkraut Casserole (Kapusta) image

When my husband's Grandmother died, I was the designated person to bring this to all holiday dinners (even though I'm Irish!) since I learned what to do by watching her. She always used fresh rather than smoked Polish Sausage.

Provided by Mareesme

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 1h45m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 lbs Polish sausage, fresh if possible
1/2 lb bacon
1 small yellow onion
2 (27 ounce) jars sauerkraut
1/2 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup water

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Bring sausage to boil and simmer 15 minutes; drain and set aside.
  • Cut bacon into small pieces.
  • Begin browning, then add diced onion.
  • Saute together until bacon is almost crisp.
  • Drain mixture, reserving bacon grease.
  • Drain sauerkraut (do not rinse).
  • Add sauerkraut and brown sugar to bacon mixture.
  • Mix in about 2 Tablespoons reserved bacon grease and water.
  • Place in large casserole dish.
  • Cut Polish sausage into 3" pieces and place on top of sauerkraut.
  • Cover and bake at 325 degrees Fahrenheit for 1 hour 15 minutes, checking sauerkraut mixture halfway through to add more water if sauerkraut appears very dry.
  • Finish baking; remove from oven.
  • Taste sauerkraut and, if desired, adjust flavor by adding salt and pepper, or a little more brown sugar, vinegar or bacon grease to your taste. (Note: In the old days, Busia (Grandma) would soak a cup of yellow peas overnight to soften them and would mix them into the sauerkraut. It was probably to stretch the quantity, but I don't do it anymore!).

Tips:

  • When choosing Polish sausage, look for a type that is fully cooked and smoked, such as kielbasa or kabanosy.
  • Sauerkraut can be purchased fresh or canned. If using fresh sauerkraut, be sure to rinse it thoroughly before cooking.
  • Kluskies can be made with either all-purpose flour or potato flour. Potato flour will give the kluskies a lighter, more delicate texture.
  • To make the kluskies, be sure to use boiling water. This will help the dough to set quickly and prevent the kluskies from becoming gummy.
  • Serve the Polish platter with a side of mustard or horseradish sauce.

Conclusion:

This Polish platter is a hearty and flavorful meal that is perfect for a special occasion or a casual weeknight dinner. The combination of sausage, sauerkraut, and kluskies is sure to please everyone at the table. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make this dish at home. So next time you're looking for a delicious and authentic Polish meal, give this platter a try!
