You'll need

  • 400 g14 oz Hackfleisch
  • 1 dicke Zwiebel gewürfelt
  • Salz
  • Pfeffer
  • Knoblauchpulver
  • 300 g10½ oz Sauerkraut
  • 100 g3½ oz Tomatenmark
  • Oregano
  • 750 g1¾ lb Klossteig
  • 200 g7 oz geriebenener Käse
  • 400 g14 oz minced meat
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Garlic powder
  • 300 g10½ oz sauerkraut
  • 100 g⅓ cup + 1 tbsp3½ oz tomato paste
  • Oregano
  • 750 g1¾ lb potato dumpling dough
  • 200 g1¾ cups7 oz grated cheese

Method

  1. Brown the minced meat with the onion and the seasonings over a high heat.

    Our tip Leave the mince alone for a minute or two before breaking it up, and keep the heat high until its liquid has cooked off and it starts to brown rather than stew.

  2. Add the sauerkraut and tomato paste and braise until soft. (I did it in a frying pan because it's quicker than in the Combi)
  3. Grease the Combi pan and roll out the dumpling dough in it.

    Our tip Potato dumpling dough is sticky and clings to a rolling pin; pressing it into the greased pan with wet hands is much easier.

  4. Then put the minced meat and sauerkraut mixture on top and sprinkle with the grated cheese.
  5. Slide into the Combi and bake until done at 180°C355°F//Bake.

    Our tip Cut a small piece from the middle: the potato base should be firm and set, not pasty, and the cheese golden.

Method

  1. Hackfleisch mit der Zwiebel und den Gewürzen scharf anbraten.

    Our tip Leave the mince alone for a minute or two before breaking it up, and keep the heat high until its liquid has cooked off and it starts to brown rather than stew.

  2. Das Sauerkraut und Tomatenmark zugeben und weich schmoren. (Ich habe es in einer Pfanne gemacht, weil es schneller geht, als im Combi)
  3. Die tiefe Form des Combis einfetten und den Klossteig darin ausrollen.

    Our tip Potato dumpling dough is sticky and clings to a rolling pin; pressing it into the greased pan with wet hands is much easier.

  4. Dann das Hackfleisch -Sauerkrautgemisch Darauf geben und dann mit dem geriebenen Käse bestreuen.
  5. In den Combi schieben und dann bei 180 Grad/ ./ Bake fertig backen.
