Fried Sauerkraut Cakes With Kielbasa image

This is similar to a potato pancake in texture. The recipe was handed down to me by a local chef. This meal is best served with buttered noodles or mashed potatoes. I recommend serving this dish with a side of warm applesauce or recipe #3057 Daisy Mae's Fried Apples.

Time 50m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (16 ounce) package sauerkraut, rinsed and drained well (not canned)
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1/3 cup flour
1/2 cup green onion, chopped fine
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2-3/4 cup vegetable oil, divided
1 lb smoked kielbasa, cut crosswise into 1/2 inch slices

Steps:

  • For Sauerkraut Cakes:.
  • Preheat oven to 250 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Pat sauerkraut dry between paper towels to remove as much moisture as possible.
  • Transfer well drained sauerkraut into a bowl and stir in eggs, flour, onions, salt and pepper; stir until combined.
  • Heat 1/2 inch of oil in a 12 inch heavy skillet over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking.
  • Fill a 1/4 cup measure 3/4 full with the sauerkraut mixture.
  • Turn out into hot oil using a fork.
  • Release and flatten to 3-1/2 inch diameter with the fork.
  • Form 2 more cakes in the skillet the same way; then fry, turning over once, until golden (about 4 minutes).
  • Transfer the cakes with a slotted spatula to a paper towel to drain; transfer to a baking sheet once drained.
  • To keep warm, place cakes in the pre-heated oven in a shallow baking pan.
  • Fry more cakes in the same manner with remaining ingredients.
  • For Kielbasa:.
  • Brown keilbasa in 2 batches in oil remaining in skillet over medium heat and turn occasionally until browned.
  • Transfer to paper towel to drain; serve with sauerkraut cakes and noodles or mashed potatoes.

These cakes were a bit too spicy for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would use less cayenne pepper next time.

These cakes were amazing! The flavors were perfect and the texture was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. I will definitely be making these again.

These cakes were a bit too greasy for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would try baking them next time instead of frying them.
