This German-style rice recipe is a delicious mixture of some traditional German ingredients and makes for a quick and hearty meal.
Ingredients
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 1 ½ pounds fresh bratwurst links, casings removed
- 1 onion, halved and thinly sliced into half rings
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 2 teaspoons fennel seed
- 1 (14.5 ounce) can Bavarian-style sauerkraut, undrained
- 3 cups uncooked white rice
- 1 tablespoon chicken soup base (paste)
- 6 cups water
- ¼ cup raisins
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Cook Bratwurst until browned, breaking it up into chunks as it cooks, about 10 minutes.
Step 2
Stir in onions and garlic, and cook until onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Mix in fennel seed and sauerkraut with juice, and allow the mixture to pan-fry for 2 minutes without stirring.
Step 3
Stir in rice and soup base until incorporated, about 2 minutes. Stir in water, raisins, and black pepper. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring frequently, for 5 minutes.
Step 4
Reduce heat to a simmer, and cook until rice is tender and almost all the water has been absorbed, about 30 minutes.
Tips
I like to use Bratwurst sausages in casing that I can remove before cooking instead of buying it ground. That way when I fry it in the pan and break it up, I can leave big chunks as well as smaller ground meat.
