1
Peel potatoes, cut into pieces, cover with water, put on the stove and bring to a boil.
-
2
Once boiling, cover and lower the heat.
-
3
Cook until a fork goes in easy.
-
4
Drain and mash with milk, adding a little at a time.
-
5
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
-
6
While potatoes are cooking, using a Dutch oven without the nonstick coating, drizzle in some oil.
-
7
Remove fat from the pork chops and season them generously with salt and pepper.
-
8
Slice up the onion.
-
9
Add some of the pork chops to the hot oil and fry until brown.
-
10
Continue frying until all are done.
-
11
Place on a dish when done.
-
12
You should have some brown stuff sticking to the bottom of the pot.
-
13
Now saute the onions until tender.
-
14
Pour the sauerkraut into a large strainer and wash with sink water (I use my sprayer to rinse it all well).
-
15
This helps reduce the sour taste, so if you like sour, you can rinse it less.
-
16
Add the kraut to the pot with the sauteed onions along with a cup of water.
-
17
Mix well.
-
18
Add the pork chops back in and get them down into the sauerkraut.
-
19
This will tenderize the chops and make them fork tender.
-
20
You can taste now and see if you need more salt and pepper.
-
21
Cover the pot and let it simmer while you are mashing up the potatoes.
-
22
Serve the pork chops on the side and the kraut and juice over the mashed potatoes.
-
23
Any leftover kraut is also delicious on hot dogs.
