UBER-BRATEN KIELBASA AND SAUERKRAUT CASSEROLE



Uber-Braten Kielbasa and Sauerkraut Casserole image

A true German/Polish dish that is simply 'Delish'! I sometimes use Swiss cheese in place of the Cheddar, which is a good switch as well! This is a casserole that is very inexpensive, simple and quick to make - and not to mention leftovers are the best the next day as well!!

Steps:

Number Of Ingredients 13

8 ounces wide noodles
1 (14 oz.) pkg. kielbasa or smoked sausage
1/3 cup butter
1/3 cup flour
1 teasp. garlic powder
1 teasp. onion powder
1/4 teasp. black pepper
1/2 teasp. dry mustard
3 cups milk
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1-1/2 cups sauerkraut, drained (*see note)
4 tablesp. plain dried bread crumbs
2 tablesp. melted butter

Steps:

  • 1. Grease the inside of a 2-1/2 to 3-quart casserole baking dish; set baking dish aside.
  • 2. Cook egg noodles as per directions on package; set aside.
  • 3. Cut Kielbasa or smoked sausage into chunks, then cut each chunk in half; set aside.
  • 4. Melt the 1/3 cup of butter in a large saucepan. (I used a 3-quart saucepan).
  • 5. Stir in the flour, garlic power, onion powder, pepper, and mustard.
  • 6. When mixture is well combined, gradually add the milk. Bring mixture to a boil for 1 minute; stirring constantly until the sauce has thicken. (Mine started to thicken in less than a minute.)
  • 7. Add the cup of cheese to the pan, stir until melted.
  • 8. Add the Kielbasa or smoked sausage, plus the drained sauerkraut to the pan, and stir.
  • 9. Pour mixture into the greased baking dish, then stir in the precooked noodles.
  • 10. Top the casserole with a mixture of 4 tablespoons of bread crumbs mixed with 2 tablespoons of melted butter.
  • 11. Bake casserole (uncovered) for 25 minutes in a 375º oven.
  • 12. Note: When preparing this casserole, you can use a Bavarian Sauerkraut in place of regular sauerkraut. Plus the original recipe states to use 2 cups of the kraut, but I just use 1-1/2 cups. Also, you can use smoked sausage in place of the Kielbasa. I used smoked sausage, and the brand of sausage I used was, Eckrich.

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, use dark beer instead of regular beer.
  • If you don't have caraway seeds, you can substitute fennel seeds or cumin seeds.
  • To make the casserole ahead of time, cook it according to the recipe and then let it cool completely. Cover the casserole and refrigerate for up to 3 days. When ready to serve, reheat the casserole in a 350 degree F oven for 30 minutes, or until heated through.
  • Serve the casserole with mashed potatoes, noodles, or bread.

Conclusion:

This hearty and flavorful casserole is a perfect meal for a cold winter night. The kielbasa, sauerkraut, and potatoes are all cooked in a savory beer and onion sauce, and the whole dish is topped with melted cheese. It's a delicious and easy meal that the whole family will enjoy.
