Baked Sauerkraut With Apples


This german recipe is borrowed (with a tweak) from recipes4us.co.uk. the original recipe calls for 120ml beef stock, but i wanted a vegetarian version. you could revert to the beef stock or replace my suggested vegetable stock with a small amount (say ½ teaspoon) of marmite or vegemite dissolved in 120ml of very hot water. recipe posted for zaar world tour 2005.

Steps


Heat the butter in a large oven proof lidded casserole dish , add the onions and saut until soft and transparent.

Preheat the oven to 170c , 325f , gas mark 3 during this cooking time.
