INGREDIENTS
  • 1 onion
  • 3 cups wine sauerkraut (in a can)
  • 4 tablespoons of butter
  • Freshly ground pepper, to taste
DIRECTIONS
  1. Drain the sauerkraut and then chop finely.
  2. Finely mince the onion.
  3. Melt butter in a medium-sized fry pan and add minced onion. Sauté the onion over medium heat until it turns translucent.
  4. Add sauerkraut and sauté for 10 minutes until soft. Season mixture with freshly ground pepper. Keep an eye on the heat so that you don't scorch the sauerkraut.
