The sausage is, of course, traditional but I skipped them and still loved the dish.

Ingredients

  • 5 ounces small square noodles (for fleckerl, can use wide egg noodles)
  • 1/2 cabbage
  • 3 1/2 tablespoons oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon caraway seed

How To Make krautfleckerl - cabbage and pasta

  • Step 1
    Wash the cabbage and remove the stalk. Cut into quarters, then cut the quarters into smaller pieces. Add salt to taste.
  • Step 2
    Cut the cabbage pieces roughly into squares, bruise by hand and let stand for about 15 minutes.
  • Step 3
    Heat the oil in a skillet and caramelize the sugar a bit (this takes about 2-3 minutes on medium heat). Sugar will melt and turn brownish color. Do not burn.
  • Step 4
    Add the cabbage, onions and the caraway seeds. Cover, and cook for about 30 minutes on low, stirring regularly, until light brown in color. Season with pepper.
  • Step 5
    Brown the sausage slices for several minutes to brown lightly and remove.
  • Step 6
    Boil some water and cook the noodles until soft, drain and combine with the cabbage. Let stand for a few minutes. Season with more salt and pepper to taste. Top with browned sausage slices.
