Pork ribs with sauerkraut and mashed potatoes

This is a traditional, succulent and rich German dish that I have made countless times. I love the smoky flavor of the Kassler combined with the sour sauerkraut and creamy mashed potatoes. This recipe is a winner for special occasions and also makes a delicious comfort dish on colder days.

1. Step

How do you make pork ribs with sauerkraut and mashed potatoes? Place the pork ribs in a large pot with the bay leaf and cloves (attached to an onion). Fill the pot with water until the meat is covered. Check regularly to see if the water needs topping up. Cook over a medium heat for about 90 minutes. Once the pork is cooked, it will be very tender and juicy, exactly the desired result.

2. Step

While the smoked pork is cooking, prepare the sauerkraut. Please be careful not to overcook the sauerkraut, otherwise it will lose its bite. Sauerkraut that is as fresh as possible ensures the best taste.

3. Step

Peel the potatoes and cover with water in a large pan. Boil the potatoes until they are soft (approx. 20-25 minutes), then drain.

4. Step

Heat the milk and butter in a small pan until the butter has melted. Pour the mixture over the drained potatoes and mash until creamy. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Good mashed potatoes should always be creamy, so don't skimp on the butter and milk!

5. Step

Serve the pork ribs with sauerkraut and mashed potatoes. A full plate of this delicious combination will impress the whole family.
