HOW TO MAKE POLISH SAUERKRAUT RECIPES

Steps:

• Cut sausage into 1-inch sliced sausages and chopped onions. Add butter in a skillet until melted.
• Put the sausages and onions in melted butter and cover, cook for 15 minutes on medium-low heat and add sauerkraut in sausage mixture and stir well.
• Cover, cook for ten more minutes until they are done.

Steps:

• Chop the onion into small pieces and fry in olive oil.
• Chop the sauerkraut and squeeze out excess juice. In a pot, boil water and put the sauerkraut in. Grate the carrot and add to the pot.
• Cook for about 30 minutes until the cabbage becomes soft. Drain it well.
• Add the sauerkraut/carrot mix to the fried onion, combine and fry together for 10-15 minutes. Season with the right amount of salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Choose one of the dough recipes from here, or follow this basic recipe below.
• Sift the flour onto your work surface. Make a well, pour in a small amount of hot water.
• Knead quickly, gradually adding enough water for the dough to become soft and elastic. Don't add too much, because it might become too sticky.
• Divide the dough into four parts. Spread the first on a work surface sprinkled with flour. Roll into a thin piece of dough. Cut into circles using a round cutter (or a glass).
• Place a spoonful of sauerkraut filling in the middle of each circle. Fold dough over filling. Press edges together. 
• Continue until you're out of ingredients.
• Bring a pot of salted water to a boil, then reduce the heat slightly.
• Drop in a couple of dumplings. Cook for 5 to 6 minutes - until they start to float to the top.
• Collect pierogi with a slotted spoon. Serve with melted butter or other topping of choice.
