Here's a quick recipe to spruce up the sausages and 'dogs you'll be grilling for the next few months. A five minute recipe that you can store in the fridge, bring to a picnic, or eat straight out of the pan. It's a quick sauerkraut recipe that you'll be happy to have! —Brussels Sprouts for Breakfast

What You'll Need
Ingredients
  • 1/4 head red cabbage (shaved or thinly sliced)
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 teaspoon whole caraway seeds
  • 1 teaspoon yellow mustard seeds
  • 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
  • salt and pepper
  • olive oil
Directions
  1. Shave the 1/4 head of cabbage with a mandolin. If you don't have a mandolin, cut the cabbage into really thin strips, like sauerkraut or coleslaw.
  2. In a medium sauce pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic and cook for 2 minutes. Add cabbage, caraway seeds, mustard seeds, vinegar, salt and pepper. Mix to combine and lower heat to low. Cook for 10 minutes. Remove from heat. The sauerkraut can either be served warm or chilled on your favorite brats and dogs.

I have made this several times now to serve with my German Rouladen. Yes it's not fermented by by far fresher tasting and more modern I think. http://oldworldtaste.com/germanrouladen/

Hi Horto - 1 1/2 - 2 tbsp oil should do the trick!
