Kielbasa With Smothered Cabbage And Mashed Potatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Slice the potatoes into approximately 1-2 inch pieces.
• Put these in a large pot and cover in water with about an inch over the potatoes.
• Let the potatoes cook alone for 20-25 minutes at medium heat it will stay on that for the entire cooking process.
• Slice cabbage into eighth and add to the pot with the potatoes.
• Let these two cook together for 10 minutes.
• Cut kielbasa into about inch thick slices and again -- add to the pot.
• Let the three cook for another 20 minutes.
• Tada! It is done, turn off the heat and let it sit for about five minutes as it will be hot.

Steps:

• In a large heavy skillet heat the oil over moderate heat until it is hot but not smoking and in it brown the kielbasa. Add the cabbage and the onion and cook the mixture, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is browned. Add 1 1/2 cups water and simmer the mixture, covered partially, for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the cabbage is tender.
• While the mixture is simmering, in a steamer set over boiling water steam the potatoes, peeled and cut into 3/4-inch pieces, covered, for 12 minutes, or until they are very tender, transfer them to a bowl, and mash them with a potato masher. Add the milk, scalded, 3 tablespoons hot water, the butter, and salt and pepper to taste and stir the potato mixture until the butter is melted. Serve the kielbasa mixture on the mashed potatoes.

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a large microwave-safe bowl and add 3 tablespoons water; cover with plastic wrap and microwave until tender, about 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cut the kielbasa into 4 equal pieces; halve lengthwise. Melt 1/2 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the kielbasa and cook, turning occasionally, until browned and heated through, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a plate and cover loosely with foil to keep warm.
• Increase the heat under the skillet to medium high; add the remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Add the broccoli and 1/4 cup water and cook, stirring, until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Add the sauerkraut and toss to warm through.
• Drain the potatoes. Warm the milk in the microwave, about1 minute; add to the potatoes along with the mustard, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste. Coarsely mash with a potato masher or fork. Serve the kielbasa with the potatoes and the broccoli.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Cut kielbasa into serving size pieces (approx. 3" long). Score the outside and peel off the casing, discard casing. Cut in half lengthwise
• Boil and smash potatoes using a bit of milk and butter (potatoes should not be creamy). Place in a oven proof casserole dish (large enough to fit all your potato mixture and still leave about 2" from the top). Place kielbasa flat side down on top of mash potatoes and cover with foil.
• Place in oven and cook for about 15 minutes. Check to see if potato is bubbling. If potato is bubbling, remove foil top and turn oven to broil. Once tops of kielbasa crisp up, remove from oven. Let stand 5 minutes before serving. Taste great with a side of sweet corn.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine pork, beef and garlic. In a separate bowl, stir together black pepper, salt, brown sugar, ground allspice, marjoram and liquid smoke. Combine mixtures and knead with hands to combine.
• Fill casings with meat mixture and refrigerate overnight. Boil or grill before serving.
