Recipe of the month: Krautfleckerl

Ingredients

• 250 g Fleckerl pasta cooked (= 100 g raw)
• 1 tbsp oil
• 1 small onion
• a little sugar
• 200 g cabbage (recommended)
• 1 tsp salt, pepper
• Vinegar
• Caraway, nutmeg, salt, pepper

Preparation

1. Cook the noodles in salted water.

2. Meanwhile, dice the onion and sauté in 1 tbsp oil until translucent.

3. Cut the cabbage into noodle-like strips and knead it with salt in a bowl until soft; let it sit for a few minutes.

4. Caramelize the sautéed onion with a little sugar (simply distribute the sugar evenly in the pan and wait until it browns — it only takes ½ minute), then lightly fry the cabbage with it and mix well.

5. After a few minutes, deglaze with a little vinegar (using different types of vinegar will change the flavor!).

6. Season with salt, pepper, caraway, and nutmeg.

7. If the cabbage is too dry, add a little broth, then reduce the heat and simmer covered for 5 to 10 minutes until tender.

8. Fold the cooked noodles into the steamed cabbage, mix well and adjust the seasoning.

9. 1 tbsp sour cream, Cremefine or similar further enhances the flavor of the Krautfleckerln!
