Zuurkoolstamppot
A flavourful Dutch alternative to regular mashed potatoes.
Ingredients
750g starchy potatoes, peeled and cubed
250g sauerkraut, drained
100g smoked bacon, diced
1 onion finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup milk
Butter (as much as you like)
Pepper
Instructions
In a large skillet, fry the bacon until crispy Remove from the pan but leave the bacon fat in in the pan.
Add the onion to the bacon fat and sauté until soft.
Add the garlic and cook for another minute until that is also soft. Add the sauerkraut and cook for another minute to warm it through.
Boil the potatoes in salted water until tender (about 15-120 minutes). Drain then tip back into the pan. Add milk and butter. Mash throughly.
Add the bacon, onion and sauerkraut mix and sitr through. Add pepper to taste. I don’t think this dish needs additional salt but taste and add some if you like.
Enjoy!
