Bigos (hunter's Stew)

Ingredients

  • Any leftover meat (We usually buy some stew beef and some pork)
  • 1 pound Polish sausage (Kielbasa)
  • 2 pounds sauerkraut
  • 1/4 pound salt pork
  • 4 dried mushrooms
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 bouillon cube
  • 2 apples, peeled and diced
  • 3 tomatoes, diced
  • 2 tablespoons mustard
  • salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

Cook sauerkraut and mushrooms in large stewpot over medium/med-hi heat. (You may want to soak the mushrooms in hot water first) Add the apples and tomatoes, turn the heat down to medium-low, and simmer. In a frying pan, brown the salt pork (diced) with a chopped onion (which I just realized I left out of the ingredient list). Add to the sauerkraut mixture. Chop the meat and polish sausage into stew-size chunks and add to the pot. Finally, stir in the sugar, mustard, and boulion cube. Simmer for an hour and serve with potatoes. *Note: the longer it cooks, the better it tastes! The original recipe is somewhat vague, but I think the first ingredient says it all - LEFTOVERS! We add other veggies and such as we have them. Hope you enjoy this!
