250 g + some flour
2 TEASPOONS sugar, salt, pepper
1/2 package Dry yeast
75 g very soft butter
1 Egg (Gr. M)
1.5-1.7 kg tripped chop of Kasseler
1 vegetable onion, 2 tablespoons oil
2 tin(s) (each 850 g) Sauerkraut
1 tart apple
8-10 Juniper berries
2 Bay leaves
7-10 Tbsp good 1/8 l apple juice
1 egg yolk, 200 g whipped cream
baking paper

Directions

1
Mix 250 g flour, 1 tsp. sugar, 1/2 tsp. salt and yeast. Add 75 ml lukewarm water, butter and egg. Knead everything to a smooth dough. Cover and leave to rise in a warm place for about 2 hours
2
Simmer the cured pork in boiling water for about 35 minutes. Take out and let cool well
3
Peel and chop the onion. Fry in hot oil until transparent. Add sauerkraut and fry. Season with salt, pepper and 1 tsp. sugar. Peel and core apple. Grate roughly and add to the cabbage with juniper, bay leaf and apple juice. Cover and stew for 20-30 minutes.
4
Knead the dough, roll out to a rectangle (approx. 30 x 35 cm) on some flour. Whip the cured pork in it, cut off the excess dough. Place it with the seam facing down on a baking tray covered with baking paper. Roll out the rest of the dough again, cut into strips and twist into cords. Decorate the dough cover with it. Whisk egg yolk and 1 tbsp. cream. Spread the dough with it
5
Bake in a hot oven (electric cooker: 200 °C/circulating air: 175 °C/gas: level 3) for approx. 20 minutes. Add the rest of the cream to the sauerkraut, bring to the boil again and season to taste. Arrange everything. Boiled potatoes go well with it
