Drinkas Sarma Meat Balls In Sauerkraut Recipes

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef and pork, onion, breadcrumbs, parsley, salt, pepper, garlic, Worcestershire, egg, and milk.
• Shape into 1½" to 2" meatballs, and chill until set.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet, and brown the meatballs on all sides.
• Remove meatballs, and drain fat from pan, leaving browned bits in bottom.
• Add sauerkraut and juice to skillet, and top with meatballs.
• Cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until meatballs are done.
• Add water or wine if necessary to keep sauerkraut moist.
• Sprinkle with parsley for garnish.
• Serve with buttered boiled potatoes.

Steps:

• Heat 1 teaspoon coconut oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onions and saute until tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• In a large bowl, combine the beef, onions, garlic, egg, rice, breadcrumbs, 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper and stir until well combined. Scoop the meatballs using a 2-tablespoon or 1-ounce scoop and put on a plate or baking sheet until ready to sear. You should have about 20 meatballs.
• Heat 1 tablespoon coconut oil in the Dutch oven over medium heat and working in batches, brown the meatballs, about 2 minutes on each side. Remove from the pot and drain the fat.
• Return the Dutch oven to medium heat, add the tomato sauce and scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Stir in the sauerkraut, Italian seasoning and salt and pepper, to taste. Put the meatballs into the sauce in one layer. Turn the heat to medium low, cover and simmer until meatballs are no longer pink on the inside and the rice is tender, 20 to 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Using a food ricer, rice the potatoes into a large mixing bowl. Add the sauerkraut, ham, egg yolks, 1/4 cup of mustard and chopped green onions. Mix well. Season with salt and pepper. Form the mixture into small balls, about a tablespoon each. Place on a parchment lined baking sheet. Place in the freezer and freeze for 30 minutes.
• Preheat the fryer. Season the flour, egg wash, and bread crumbs, with salt and pepper. Roll each sauerkraut ball in the flour, coating completely. Dip each in the egg wash, letting the excess drip off. Finally roll each in the bread crumbs. Fry the sauerkraut balls in batches until golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the fryer and drain on paper towels. Season with salt.
• In small mixing bowl, combine the remaining 1/2 cup of the mustard and sour cream. Season with salt and pepper. Mix well. Serve the sauerkraut balls on a large platter with the mustard dipping sauce. Garnish with parsley.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix sauerkraut, jellied cranberry sauce, brown sugar and spaghetti sauce.
• Place meatballs in a slow cooker set to low. Cover with the sauerkraut mixture. Cook 3 to 4 hours, stirring occasionally.

Steps:

• Heat a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook and sausage and onion in the hot skillet until sausage is browned and crumbly, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and discard grease.
• Transfer to a large bowl and add sauerkraut, cream cheese, parsley, mustard, garlic powder, and pepper. Mix until well combined. Cover and place in the refrigerator to chill for about 1 hour.
• Place flour in a shallow dish. Whisk milk and eggs together in a separate dish. Place bread crumbs in a third dish.
• Remove sauerkraut and sausage mixture from the refrigerator and roll into 3/4 inch balls. Roll balls in flour, then in milk-egg mixture, then in bread crumbs.
• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Deep fry in batches until golden brown, about 3 minutes per batch. Drain on paper towels.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place a wire rack on top of the aluminum foil.
• Place sauerkraut in a colander in the sink and press all the liquid out using the back of a large spoon. Flake sauerkraut into a large bowl and add sausage; mix well. Form sausage mixture into quarter-size balls and arrange on the rack on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cooked through and browned, 30 to 40 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

Steps:

• Take the whole sauerkraut head and remove leaves carefully avoiding damaging them. 1500 g should give about 20 to 25 sarmas. Cut the thick part at the bottom of each leaf (cut it triangularly).
• Mix grounded beef, pork and bacon. Add two eggs and very finely minced onion. Cook rice until half done and add into meat. Add salt, pepper and mix hard.
• Take leaf of sauerkraut and put meat in it and make a small package making sure to close ends. I don't know how to explain it but you have to press leaf end into. Do it until you have enough meat or leaves.
• Take a really large pot and start to put sarmas in it. At the bottom put smoked bacon skins if you have any, than one layer of sarmas, one layer bacon or pork ribs. Also add sliced sauerkraut in between. After you lay all sarmas and bacon, ribs and sliced sauerkraut, pour 2 cups of brine over everything (this is optional, my family like really sour sauerkraut that's why I've put it).
• Cook for about 1 hour on mild fire. Some people, and I'm among them like to add this: take small pan, melt lard and fry flour until brownish - add paprika and some cold water and make creamy stuff (we call this "ajmbren"). Add this into sarma and cook 2 to 3 hours.
• The best sarma in the next day, not the day you've cooked it. You can eat sarma up to whole week; you can also freeze portions. We eat cooked potato on lard and onion with it called "restani krumpir".
