My husband and I enjoyed this recipe as a side for pork schnitzel. We're on keto so we did make a couple of adjustments. We swapped the flour for about 1/3 cup of almond flour and we did an even swap of monk fruit to replace the sugar. I'm actually thinking of using a brown sugar substitute next time. We also added a bell pepper with the onion because we had one we needed to use. This is definitely a winner!

Excellent recipe. A couple of variations to consider: add sliced mushrooms. Sautée them with the onions. Use arrowroot instead of flour for a gluten free alternative. Use half milk and half cream (or even all milk) for a lighter taste.

We enjoyed this. I had bavarian sauerkraut which already contains caraway seed and sugar, but added more anyway. Next time I will leave out the vinegar; I don't think it really adds anything. This was a different way to have sauerkraut as a side with roast pork.

I had to register to review this recipe, one of my favorites as a kids was sauerkraut and pork hocks, mom always just used a simple white sauce with her home made sauerkraut but I decided to try this instead, I'm in heaven right now, too bad my girlfriend and kids don't care for it (too bad for them haha)
