1 thyme sprig

  • Brown the sausages all over in the same frying pan - make sure they get a really good colour because they won't get any browner in the slow cooker. Transfer to the slow cooker and add the sweet potato and tomatoes.

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!).

SAUSAGE PASTA CASSEROLE



Sausage Pasta Casserole image

Provided by Nancy Fuller

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for the baking dish
Kosher salt
1 pound rigatoni
1 pound sweet Italian sausage, removed from the casings
1 medium onion, sliced
1 medium bulb fennel, trimmed, cored and sliced
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 28-ounce can whole tomatoes, crushed by hand
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, coarsely chopped
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (8 ounces)
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese (1 ounce)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Brush a shallow 3-quart baking dish with olive oil. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook until very al dente; you still want it to retain a little bite. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water. Drain well.
  • Meanwhile, in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat, add the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the sausage and cook and crumble with a wooden spoon until no longer pink, about 4 minutes. Add the onion and fennel; cook until softened, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook until the garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the tomatoes and season with salt. Bring to a simmer and add the cream. If the sauce is too thick, add a little water from the pasta. Turn up the heat to medium high and simmer rapidly to thicken the sauce and blend the flavors, about 10 minutes.
  • Add the rigatoni and basil and toss to coat the pasta with the sauce. Remove from the heat and stir in half each of the mozzarella and parmesan. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and sprinkle with the remaining mozzarella and parmesan. Bake until browned and bubbly, 15 to 20 minutes. Let sit 10 minutes before serving.

Provided by Experimenter

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Dumpling Recipes

Time 1h20m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 ⅓ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
3 eggs
⅓ cup water
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
2 slices bacon, diced
½ large onion, chopped
2 tablespoons butter
1 small Gala apple, cored and chopped
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 (16 ounce) package sauerkraut
1 (16 ounce) package kielbasa sausage, cut into 2-inch pieces

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a metal colander.
  • Whisk together the flour and salt in a bowl. Mix the eggs and water, and pour into the flour mixture. Stir to form a dough.
  • Bring a pot of water to a boil. Place the spaetzle dough into the oiled colander, and set the colander over the pot of water. Use a flexible spatula to push the dough into the boiling water through the holes in the colander. Stir the spaetzle as they boil. When they have floated to the top, they are done (about 5 minutes). Scoop the spaetzle out of the boiling water, and place into an ungreased 9x9-inch baking dish.
  • Place the bacon in a skillet over medium heat, and cook, stirring often, until the bacon is crisp, about 8 minutes. Remove bacon, leaving drippings in pan, and set aside. Cook the onion in the same pan as the bacon until browned, about 10 minutes.
  • In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat until foamy, and stir in the apple and brown sugar. Cook and stir until the apple is soft, about 5 minutes. Transfer the cooked bacon, onions, and sauerkraut into the skillet, and cook, stirring often, until the flavors have blended, about 5 minutes. Pour the sauerkraut mixture into the 9x9-inch baking dish on top of the spaetzle.
  • Place the kielbasa pieces into a microwave-safe dish, and cook on full power in a microwave oven until the sausage is hot and has lost its pink color, 2 or 3 minutes. Transfer the sausage to the baking dish.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until bubbling, about 15 minutes.
