Ingredients
- 1 kg sauerkraut, drained
- ½ tsp caraway seeds
- 10 juniper berries
- 2 cloves
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 litre vegetable stock
- 30 ml cider vinegar
- 200 g speck, cut into 2 cm slices
- 2 Morteau sausages, cut into 1 cm slices
- 1 Lyonnaise sausage, cut into 1 cm slices
- 1 Toulouse sausage
- 1 tbsp butter
- 8 baby turnips, halved
- 8 baby carrots, peeled and quartered
- 4 baby leeks, whites only, 5 cm batons
- 12 baby potatoes, peeled and cooked
- 2 tbsp roughly chopped flat-leaf parsley
- wholegrain mustard, optional
Instructions
- In a large heavy-based saucepan over medium heat, combine the sauerkraut, caraway seeds, juniper berries, cloves, bay leaf, half the vegetable stock and the cider vinegar.
- Once the cabbage is hot, add the speck and sliced sausages to the pan. Cover and cook for 20 minutes, or until the sausage flavours infuse into the cabbage.
- Meanwhile, in a separate large saucepan, melt the butter over a medium-high heat. When hot, add the turnips and sauté for 2-3 minutes. Add the remaining vegetable stock, carrots, and leeks and cook until tender. Add the potatoes and cook for 4-5 minutes, or until heated through.
- While the vegetables are cooking, in a medium frying pan over medium-high heat, cook the Toulouse sausage until hot. Add the Toulouse sausage to the sauerkraut pan.
- To serve, divide choucroute between bowls. Spoon over the vegetables and baby potatoes and sprinkle with parsley. Serve with wholegrain mustard on the side if you like!
