You can do more if you want …this is just a guideline recipe.
6 Bratwurst, Kielbasa’s, Aidell’s Sausages, Andouille, hot dogs, all work.
1 Sweet Onion chopped
1 Apple, cored and chopped
1 tsp or more Caraway seeds.
1 Pkg or about 3 cups Saurkraut. With at least 3/4 c Juice
Sauté Brats in Evoo untill brown on all sides…I use a Frying Pan on Med to Med High because it’s faster… But by all means, if you prefer the IP then do it in there, just need to make sure that you deglaze it’s well after.
Meanwhile, rough chop the Onion and the Apple removing core first.
When Brats are done, remove them and toss the onion in for a few minutes, add the apple. Sprinkle well with caraway seeds. (Sometimes when cooking them in the IP I don’t sauté the onions. But when doing Stove top, I always do).
Make sure all the brown is off the bottom so the pot will come to pressure. Toss in Sauerkraut with Juice. Put the Brats on top.
Lid on, vent to sealing.
Set the time for 4 min, 1 min NPR.
If you don’t have Sauerkraut and don’t have Apples, but do have Apple Juice and Cabbage and Apple Cider Vinegar, read on.
