Pre Heat Oven to 400 degrees F
Cut the cabbage in a 1 inch dice, I used about half the head of cabbage.
Cut the onion in strips and the bacon in narrow stips also.
.
Fry the bacon till it has sweated and is not crisp but lightly browned.
Add the onions
and cook until tender.
Reserve the bacon and onons in something like a bowl ready to add later.
Add just a little oil and fry half the cabbage and half the caraway seed
till it is tender but still a little crisp. Reserve to another pan.
Fry the other half just a little less so you
have 2 textures.
You can see the difference in textures.
Now fry the Spaetzle in butter or oil till lightly browned.
Throw the sauerkraut in with some of the spaetzle to brown it a little.
Blend the cabbbage, sauerkraut and spaetzle and put it in a 12 inch skillet.
Top with parmesan
cheese and bread crumbs.
Bake in the oven for 15 -20 min until lightly browned and the edges bubbling hot.
Serve with a Roasted Meat or Schnitzel or even as an entree |
