Delicious Mini Bratwurst & Sauerkraut Balls
I know “Mini Bratwurst & Sauerkraut Balls” might sound completely weird and unappetizing, unless you happen to be a sauerkraut lover (which I’m guessing most of us are not). But, before you bypass this Oktoberfest sequel post, here me out!
Sauerkraut balls are a traditional favorite in the Midwest, thanks to the region’s dense German heritage. These savory treats combine the fall’s abundantly sour cabbage with the sweetness of the bratwurst.
Delicious Mini Bratwurst & Sauerkraut Balls
Ingredients:
1½ pounds pork bratwursts, ground ham, or corned beef (or mixture)
2 pounds sauerkraut, squeezed and drained
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 small onion
1 pinch parsley
2 cups flour
2 cups of milk
Egg (for coating)
Unseasoned bread crumbs (for coating)
Vegetable oil (for frying)
Honey mustard, thousand island, or cocktail sauce (for dipping)
Directions:
1. Remove casing from bratwursts. Brown meat, onion, and parsley in a medium skillet over medium-high heat.
2. Add flour, milk and mustard. Stir together until combined and fluffy. Transfer to a mixing bowl and allow to cool.
3. Add sauerkraut and mix again. Roll into balls (about the size of a golf ball or slightly smaller) then completely cover balls first in flour, then dip in egg, and finally roll in bread crumbs.
4. Freeze for 20-25 minutes on a baking sheet before frying until dark brown. Drain on paper towels and serve with dipping sauce of choice.
