  1. Step 1:

    Step 1.

    How to put out potatoes with sauerkraut in a cauldron? Prepare all ingredients. Sauerkraut is suitable from the supermarket or homemade. Choose potatoes according to your taste. Instead of water, meat or vegetable broth is perfect.

  2. Step 2:

    Step 2.

    Peel the onion from the husk. Rinse well and dip with a napkin from excess moisture. Cut into small pieces. Send a frying pan with vegetable oil to medium heat. Warm it up well. Add the chopped onion. Stir-fry for 3-5 minutes.

  3. Step 3:

    Step 3.

    Squeeze sauerkraut from brine. Add to the fried onion. Stir and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft. The frying time depends on your taste. I like it when cabbage crunches a little, so I cook for about 10-15 minutes. If the cabbage is very sour, rinse it with cold water and squeeze it well from the liquid.

  4. Step 4:

    Step 4.

    Peel the potatoes and rinse well with running water. Cut into large pieces and transfer to a cauldron. Do not worry if you do not have a cauldron, you can cook in a saucepan or a deep saucepan, preferably with a thick bottom, so that during stewing, the vegetables do not burn. Pour in the boiling water.

  5. Step 5:

    Step 5.

    Add sauerkraut and onion on top and level with a spoon. There is no need to mix.

  6. Step 6:

    Step 6.

    Season with ground pepper to taste. Add salt if necessary. I didn't add it, because the cabbage is well salted. If desired, you can add a little turmeric to make the finished dish a little brighter. Set over medium heat and cover with a lid. Simmer, from the moment of boiling, for about 10 minutes on low heat.

  7. Step 7:

    Step 7.

    Stir. Check if there is any liquid left and, if necessary, add more boiling water. Simmer until all the ingredients are ready. The stewing time depends on the potato variety and the size of the sliced pieces. I stewed for another 20-25 minutes, until the potato pieces were soft.

    Step 8.

    Potatoes with sauerkraut stewed in a cauldron are ready.

    Step 9.

    Bon appetit!

A salad of fresh vegetables is perfect for such potatoes.

Sour cream can be served as an addition to the dish.

So that the mucous membrane of the eyes is not irritated when slicing onions, rinse the onion and knife with cold water. The cutting board will not absorb the unpleasant onion smell if you rub it with a piece of lemon before slicing.
