I don't know how this recipe got 5 stars. The taste was OK, totally not authentic Ukrainian. One thing my Ukrainian mom taught me to NEVER EVER! cook potatoes with sauerkraut - it will make them hard and you will have to cook forever until potatoes are tender. So take this advise and cook potatoes and onions first, then add everything else. Or better yet - do not use this recipe at all.

I totally messed this up when I made it. I don't use alcohol when I cook, so I used extra chicken stock. I also started with 2 14.5 oz cans sauerkraut and 1.25 lb potatoes. I was in a hurry and put in 1/2 cup wine vinegar! I didn't have the time or ingredients to start over. I used 4 Tbls. brown sugar, 2 bay leaves, and 1/4 c. dijon mustard. Do you know it was still delicious! Next time I will try to stick to the recipe.

This is EASY gluten free, dairy free (use olive oil), and soy free. Fantastic!!

I love sauerkraut & potatoes together - Very tasty recipe. I substituted a smoked porkchop for the Kielbasa and baked it as a casserole in a slow 325 oven covered for 1 1/2 hours. The chop was moist and fall off the bone tender - the flavors of the wine, sugar, onion & kraut fused and I thoroughly enjoyed my dinner thanks Olga for posting.
