Tonight:
Sausage & Sauerkraut With Beer
450 g Bratwurst
350 ml beer
1 whole apple - cored and sliced
1 whole sliced onion - red, white, or yellow
395 g can sauerkraut, drained
3 slices of bacon
1 bay leaf
Pepper to taste - do NOT add salt - bacon and sauerkraut have plenty of salt.
Brown bacon and sausage together about 10 minutes in a large pan or pot.
Add sliced onion and cook to soften, about 5 minutes.
Add beer and deglaze pan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low.
Drain sauerkraut and add to sausage and onions together with the sliced apple.
Cover and cook for about one hour over low heat. Check and add beer, water or stock a half cup at a time, if liquid evaporates.
Oh, gee. there's leftover beer......
