Cooking Steps
- Wash or peel the potatoes and cut into rough pieces, then transfer to a pot or saucepan.
- Submerge with water, then cover with the lid and boil for 8 minutes.
- Take the smoked sausage out of its packaging and transfer to the potatoes.
- Cook for 7 more minutes, then drain and set aside.
- In the meantime, slice the onion into half rings.
- Drain the sauerkraut and rinse under cold water if you'd prefer it to taste milder (see Tip).
- Core and dice the apple.
Health Tip: if you're watching your salt intake, serve just half of the sauerkraut. You can keep the rest to enjoy another time.
- Heat a large clean frying pan over medium-high heat.
- Fry the bacon lardons for 4 minutes until done, then remove from the pan and set aside.
- Melt a knob of butter in the same pan and fry the onion with the apple for 2 minutes.
- Stir in the sauerkraut and the brown sugar, then cover with the lid.
- Allow to stew gently for 6 - 8 minutes, then stir in another knob of butter.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper (see Tip).
Tip: if the sauerkraut is still too strong for your liking, add more butter and/or sugar as preferred.
- Mash the potatoes with a knob of butter and a splash of milk.
- Stir in the mustard and half of the bacon lardons.
- Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed.
- Cut the smoked sausage in half.
- Serve the mashed potatoes on plates and top with the rest of the bacon lardons.
